2010 Institute underway

This year's Summer Institute on SDB Polity began on Monday. Nine students have gathered at the Seventh Day Baptist Center in Janesville, Wis., to learn the governmental structure of our churches and denomination. The Center on Ministry's Dean, Gordon Lawton, and Librarian-Historian Nick Kersten are the instructors.


Photos were taken after lunch today while the students were waiting for the next session to begin. A more formal (at least posed) pic should follow within these two weeks of classes. Marian Anderson of the Milton church has graciously agreed to help feed lunch to the students and staff, and we appreciate the good cooking! Please keep the students' families in your prayers while the classes are in session and their husbands/fathers are away from home.
