On the weekend of Sept. 10-11 we traveled to Minnesota for a walk down "Memory Lane". Connie had the privilege to attend her 50th Robbinsdale High School Reunion. It was a fun time for her to reconnect with friends from the past. Here is a collection of memorabilia that was on display.
Connie was honored by her class president to offer the opening prayer for the occasion. She did an outstanding job honoring the Lord and presenting the Gospel before her 300 classmates who attended.
We were able to sit with Dave and Sue Martin and enjoy fellowship. Dave was a classmate and a member of the 4th Baptist youth group.
My favorite girl was also featured as one of the two class favorites in this picture from their yearbook that was displayed at the reunion.
We also took a ride down memory lane by visiting the site of the old 4th Baptist Church location in North Minneapolis. The old church buildings have been totally dismantled and a new headquarters for the Minneapolis Public Schools is being built on that site. Here is a photo looking north from the corner of Broadway and Fremont. That is the old Welander-Quist building in the front with the new high-rise headquarters building in the background.
This 27 million dollar project is slated to be finished in the fall of 2012. Here is a view looking south on Girard from 22nd Street.
This picture is looking south on Fremont, and the big pile of dirt is about where I lived during seminary days and where the Fosmark's lived for so many years while serving at 4th.
The final photo shows the street signs of 21st and Fremont, with the spire of the church building in the background that is now Family Baptist Church.
