ELKHART, Ind.—Ahmed Haile (on top) and Yorifumi Yaguchi (on bottom) are the 2007 recipients of the Alumni Ministry and Service Award for Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary.
Haile is a peace studies instructor at Daystar University in Nairobi, Kenya, and gives leadership to Somali Christians studying at the university.

Yaguchi combines an unusual mix of theology, pastoral work and poetry writing (see “A Poet of Peace,” March 6). A 1965 graduate of Goshen (Ind.) Biblical Seminary, Yorifumi was a professor of English poetry and Bible literature at Hokusei Gakuen University in Sapporo for 33 years and edited Poetry Nippon, a Japanese magazine of English poems. He also was a pastor of several churches for 40 years.
