New Employees

Sorry it has been awhile since I have last written. It has been a crazy few weeks. I just got back from an alumni conference at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, MI. It was a great conference and I hope to build on some of the many great ideas that I picked up there.

The start of the new school year is two weeks from today and I can't wait for the students to return. The summer is always way too quiet on campus. From the students I have met so far I am excited about what this next year holds. What has me even more excited are a couple of new employees we have recently hired.

Jonathn White was recently hired as MBU's new campus minister. Jonathan comes to us from Murfreesboro, TN where he was serving as college pastor at the Church at Crosspoint.

Sheila (Morrow) Danhoff, '90, has returned to MBU as the director of Spirit Wing. Sheila was a member of the group from 1985 until she graduated in 1990. She brings a wealth of experience to the group after spending several years as the music producer/director at Grace Church St. Louis.

These two employees should have a profound impact on the student body and student ministries of MBU. I believe that we are on the verge of an awakening/revival on the campus of MBU and that God can work through these two employees, along with other employees and students, to begin a powerful work on our campus. Please join with me as we pray for God's Spirit to move on our campus this upcoming year.

Please join me in welcoming Phillip Hunt as a development officer at MBU. Mr. Hunt brings tons of experience in strategic fund-raising, estate planning, and Christian stewardship organization to the MBU Development Office. Please consider setting up an appoint with Phillip to discuss estate planning/charitable giving or invite him to lead a seminar at your church or business. I would be glad to help set this up for you. We could even plan a meeting at your church around a concert by Spirit Wing or one of our many other student minstry groups.

That's all I have time for today, check back in over the next few weeks and I'll let you know how the new school year is starting out. Until next time.
