As an undergraduate student in Austin, Texas, it was Fred who was instrumental in bringing Joseph Mathews to the Christian Faith and Life Community. This set the stage for Mathew’s eventual appointment as Dean of the Ecumenical Institute in Evanston in 1962, an event that we will mark next year, 2012, as our Fiftieth Anniversary. I have heard it said that Joe always thought of Fred as the first member of the Order Ecumenical.

Contact me if you need further information about lodging options. To help us prepare for a fine event, I also request that everyone who has plans to attend to please send me your confirmation at tbergdall at ica-usa.org.
