ALUMNI REUNION AND FAMILY WEEKEND
Two very important groups, Alumni and
Parents, are invited to the CCU campus for the weekend of September
23 – 24.
The main event of Alumni Reunion Weekend is
the Rich Mullins
Scholarship Benefit Concert and Worship Service.
The event will begin at 6:45 with music from Xtremity, a new group
comprised of several of Rich Mullins family. At 7:00 President
Faust will give recognition to the honored five year classes from
1940 through 2000. Rick Shonkwiler, CCU Alumni Association President,
will present the annual Excellence in Ministry Award. The Concert
Choir will sing a medley of Rich Mullins songs arranged by Dr.
Ken Reid for this occasion and also lead us in worship. Included
in the program will be a video about what is happening at CCU
along with an update from Dr. Faust. Mitch McVicker and
his band are the featured performing group of the evening. Mitch
was a close personal friend of Rich Mullins and a 1999 Dove Award
Winner. An offering will be received for the Mullins
Music and Worship Scholarship. Following the program, a reception
will be held in the Student Life Center and David Grubbs Patio.
This event is free to all alumni but we do
