SEPTEMBER BSU NEWS 2009
Well, September has arrived. It is BSU Reunion Month. I have been working most of the year on the 17th Annual
BSU Reunion. The BSU Reunions began in 1992 in the home of Harold and Evelyn Spencer who lived in Chatham Il. (They still do)
This year we will celebrate number 17. We will be meeting in Carbondale (where we all met). Our theme is "I Remember When."
The date is Sept 24 and 25. I do hope you plan to attend. On Thursday night we will meet in the Baptist Student Building on the
corner of Mill and Forest. "Supper" will be served at 5:30pm. Our Thursday night meeting will be there too. You all come!!
Now, on Friday we will meet at the University Baptist Church on Oakland Ave. A wonderful program has been planned. Rolls and coffee
will be served at 8:30AM. The worship program will start at 10:30 AM. Nate Adams will be on quest speaker .The "New Chapel Singer"
will sing during this time too. Your registration form was mailed out mid August. Please return to Gerald Glasco as soon as possible.
MY MONTHLY NEW ITEMS
- Elaine Dickson plans to be present at the BSU Reunion and present every family with a copy of Billie Pate's new book. This is a wonderful gift.
- Linda Lemay Auxier posted that her Dad is in rehab with a broken pelvis. She is on facebook as Linda Auxier. Many of you will remember Everett Lemay. He was one of my favorite pastors in the 50's. I hope he will regain his health. Linda is his daughter. She keeps him informed with BSU news.
- Betty and Darrell Molen will not be at our BSU reunion. They have a trip planned to Branson. Another BSU couple, Lee and Juanita Rule, are going with them. The Molens will be missed from the Chapel Singers. Have a good trip.
- Becky Searle writes," I am very, very sorry to say that we won't be able to come to this year's reunion. About that time we will be at Ridgecrest (for the first time!) at a Christian Medical and Dental Ass'n. national conference. It is a prime time for Howard and the Indian director of Emmanuel Hosp. Assn. to make contacts in the medical profession here to help in India..Becky will be missed from the Chapel singers too.
