A few months ago Taylor University Fort Wayne announced that it was permanently closing its doors due to financial reasons. This is the college that Jeff and I went to back in the mid to late 1980's. It was actually Fort Wayne Bible College at that time. While we are sad to see the college shut down, we were pleased that there was one more reunion planned. Jeff and I were excited to go to Heritage Weekend.
We had a great time touring the campus and seeing how it has changed since we went to school there. We went to one last chapel and Jeff sat through a class with one of his favorite professors. We chatted with many friends from college days and was able to tell past professors how much we appreciated them. For me, it was totally awesome to see close to a thousand alumni, of all ages, who sacrificed to go to a Christian college. Imagine how many lives that have been touched because of that sacrifice. Missionaries, pastors, teachers, counselors, administration, social services, and on and on and on. Wow...mind boggling!!
Check back soon for more about our trip!
