Church Relations @ Wingate
April provided numerous
opportunities for the University family to nurture its
historic tie with the church.
Dr. Jesse Croom, past President
of the Council on Christian Higher Education, BSCNC, spoke
during Founders' Day on April 3. In addition, the
University recognized the Class of '42 and thirty churches
cited in the 1942 annual, THE GATE, for their support of
Wingate Junior College during that troubled period.
Mrs. Ruby Fulbright, Executive
Director of Woman's Missionary Union of NC, presented the
Baccalaureate address to our seniors.
April 29 marked a first as
Wingate observed "SeniorFest," an event designed for
senior adults.
In addition, the University's
Board of Ministers met for presentations by members from the
staff of the N.C. Baptist Hospital.
This fall, the University will
host its annual "Church Youth Day" for churches throughout
the region. We hope your church will join us for this
great event.
We are working on other
initiatives that will be of interest to you. Keep
checking back or drop me an email. I'll place
you on my distribution list for updates along the way.
Until later.....
