Lula Mae (Crowell) Stewart

Lula Mae Crowell was the former secretary and eventually second wife of Biola co-founder Lyman Stewart.

In the first Biola Yearbook the only note that appears from the class of 1914 is this one from Mrs. Lyman Stewart:

I have no message regarding service to send you this year, for the past eighteen months have been a period of retirement on account of ill health. We forget sometimes that our bodies as well as our spirits belong to God, and because of zeal for service we overtax our physical strength and thus incapacitate ourselves for a longer period of service. Active work is not all of the Christian life. So develop the inner man. Time is needed fro rest, for quiet, and for meditation. Recently I have been greatly comforted by James 1:204 in the Weynouth translation: 'Reckon it nothing but joy, my brethren, whenever you find yourself hedged in by various trials. Be assured that the testing of your faith leads to power of endurance. Only let endurance have perfect results so that you may become perfect and complete, deficient in nothing.'"1927 Biolan, pg 52
