Yesterday Chris and I completed a mailing to 27 members of our Class of 1968. Each envelope contained a letter detailing a preliminary schedule of events and a wide range of activities that attendees might choose to do and included an informative tourist pamphlet for the Currituck Outer Banks and Mainland. We sent this mailing to those members of our class who will be attending this reunion, to those who've expressed interest in this or previous reunions, and to those who have attended past reunions, e.g., Colorado, California, and Dallas, TX.
Our class reunion on the Outer Banks of North Carolina is only four months away. As a reminder, the dates are October 19-23, 2016. A book of rooms is on hold at Hampton Inn and Suites, Corolla, NC. You must call this hotel (252-453-6565) before September 21 in order to reserve a room with our discounted group rate at this oceanfront property.
If you are reading this post and you have not received this current mailing from us, please call or email me.
WELCOME to this blog for the JOSS Class of 1968. This blog is for us, members of this class. It celebrates all of us, all that we are individually and as a group, and honors those who have died. Each one of us is uniquely graced and gifted.
Most of us first came together in 1956 at a little-known place in Central Ohio. Others arrived later. Whether we left the Josephinum before ordination or were ordained in 1968, we all followed uniquely individual calls.
We have journeyed through significant historical times - "Camelot", Vatican II, the Vietnam War, exploration of space, the civil rights movement, advances in communication technology, sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, growth in and loss of relationships, terrorism, medical/surgical breakthroughs, "Arab Spring", and much more.
The vision for this blog is to connect anew, share our stories, support one another.
Greetings! Jump on board! Peace and Shalom!
