[Dialogue] FW: [scmfriends] Renate Howe's History of the ASCM 'A Centure of Influence' is now published [1 Attachment]

Fri Aug 14 09:08:17 CDT 2009

My Dad, Phil Philbrook, was the Wesley Foundation Director at several
Universities during those years and took a number of student caravans to
various locations for National Meetings. Vance Engleman and Bob Stewart were
guests in our parsonage for various MSM events.

Marge has reel to reel tapes of Keynote Addresses from the conferences. As
children we complained about moving those tapes over and over again. After
Phil died,I remember reading the box covers.  Names like Frank Laubach,
Joseph Wesley Matthews, and Martin Luther King Jr, were on some of the
boxes. At the time, I thought, they really represent the call for change in
all areas of our lives in those years, it is no wonder that so many young
people were called to create a new way.
