We are delighted when classmates connect.  The Internet has become a powerful tool for finding old friends. We want you to be aware of another place to interact with NU Alumni friends.  We now have a Northwest 60s Alumni presence on Facebook.  If you do not yet have a facebook account, I would like to invite you to join.  All you need to do is go to facebook.com and create an account using your email address as your user name.  Then you can create a profile with as much or as little information as you please. We hope that you will upload a profile photo there. Next you can begin connecting with friends.  Try typing my name, Elvin Huston, into the facebook search window. When you find me, click on "add as friend". You can also click on my list of friends, and invite any of my friends to be your friends.  Very soon, you will be connected with many of your old Northwest classmates. You will be able to see their pictures, post notes on their walls, etc., etc., etc.  Of course, we hope that you will join our 60s alumni group called: "Northwest University 1960s Alumni & Friends".  Once you join the 60s group, you can look at a lot of pictures from the 2008 & 2009 reunions. Also, you can click on "Events", and then click on "NU Alumni of the 60s Reunion", for interaction concerning our upcoming 2010 Reunion.  On that event page, you can indicate your plans to attend, or not.  You can also post a note for your classmates to see. The facebook format is very interactive.  Once you find your way around I think you will really enjoy it.

 REUNION OF THE ALUMNI OF THE 60S
July 26, 2008

What a fantastic weekend with the Northwest University Alumni of the 60's!  Here is a picture of the group taken just before the afternoon session on Saturday. How many of these 60's era classmates can you identify? We were honored to have the current president of Northwest University, Dr. Joseph Castleberry (front and center) as our guest.

Counsel from an Eternal Perspective
I John 2:15-17

15) Do not love the world or the things in the world.  If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 
16) For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life --- is not of the Father but is of the world.
17) And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

Bullock Praise Report

PRAISE REPORT:  Thu.  Aug. 14, 2008

Judi (Versolenko) Bullock  (picture here sharing her story at the 2005 Alumni Reunion),
BullockJudi2005went through surgery for breast cancer in 2002, followed by 7 months  of Chemotherapy.  Since that time she has been cancer free, but has  routine blood tests every 6 months.  When she met with her doctor on July  15, 2008, following her latest blood work, the doctor indicated that there was  a minor change this time.  Upon a physical examination a lump was found.   Subsequently she has undergone an ultra sound on the lump (it was determined to be benign) , a bone scan,  another CAT scan, followed more blood work on August 5th. 

In an email on Wednesday, August 13, 2008, Judi wrote:

"Dear Prayer team:
I just heard from my Oncologist and  my blood test was normal this last time!!! Praise God.  The bone-scan only showed a little bit of arthritis no cancer.  We are rejoicing in the Lord, to finally be thru with all these test.  God again has been faithful and has shown me that He healed me once and for all!!!
 
Also my mother is doing alot better, and is starting to get over this horrible Bronchitius that she has had for two weeks.  Keep praying for her
 
Thank you for your faithfulness
 
Pastor and Judi Bullock"
