Jim:  I attended Urbana 61 to see if God wanted me to go into full time missions. The speaker who most spoke to me was Festo Kivengere when he described Jacob and his relevance to our lives. I came home having sought the will of God in career plans convinced that I was to serve him in a secular career. Today 45 years later, I still feel that was the correct path for my life. But I am forever grateful for the missions perspective that Urbana provided and continues to provide. 04/19/07

"
