He also will be the Sunday morning Bible class leader. Rev. Philip Ilten, a retired pastor in the Pacific Southwest District, along with his wife Sheila, will lead activities for participants on Saturday evening. Several faculty members also will be part of the program. LutherHostel 2001 begins on Saturday evening with a western style cookout. Other activities will include a carillon concert, student-led evening devotions, and tours of the St. Louis Arch and the Museum of Westward Expansion or the Botanical Gardens and the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Louis.
Limited housing is available on campus or in nearby hotels.
Mr. Adams also has a couple of brochures available in his office. The older I get, the more I enjoy Saturday mornings. Perhaps it's the quiet solitude that comes with being the first to rise, or maybe it's the unbounded joy of not having to be at work. Either way, the first few hours of a Saturday morning are most enjoyable. A few weeks ago, I was shuffling toward the basement shack with a steaming cup of coffee in one hand and the morning paper in the other.
