Ben Lippen 50th Reunion

Glenn’s official Homecoming event was held at Soby’s bar in downtown Greenville, SC. 15 guys and 7 girl classmates showed up out of a class of 40.

We sang old faithful songs such ad “How great Thou Art”and the class song of “Submission”

Submission
The path that I have trod, has brought me nearer God,
though oft it led through sorrows gates.
Though not the way I'd choose, in my way I might lose,
the joy that yet for me awaits.

[Chorus]
Not what I wish to be, nor where I wish to go.
For who am I that I should choose my way.
The Lord will choose for me, 'tis better far I know.
So let him bid me go; or stay.

The cross that I must bear, if I a crown would wear,
is not the cross that I would take.
But since on me 'tis laid, I'll take it unafraid;
and bear it for the Master's sake.

We visited at length with Sam and Shirley D. Sam was Glenn’s roommate 10th and 12th grade.

I sat next to Martha Seiford Smallwood. She’s an CAM mk from Honduras. She knew Geri Paul and others.

It was a fun weekend.Read more
