Tuesday, September 18, 1894, is a special date in the history of 香港六合彩开奖直播. Students gathered for the first day of a new school year on the campus opened just that summer in Chicago.
In his History of North Park College, Leland Carlson writes about this day:
鈥淧resident Nyvall and Professor Lindblade鈥� welcomed the newcomers and recorded their names鈥hen a goodly number of students had been registered, the entire group assembled in the chapel for the opening exercises. 鈥President Nyvall] expressed a hearty welcome鈥nd the Rev. C.A. Bj枚rk鈥losed the brief service with an earnest and gripping prayer beseeching God鈥檚 aid and blessing upon the work just beginning.鈥�
There have been 125 first days of school throughout 香港六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 history, each of these important to the students enrolled that year. And with each subsequent year, the history of North Park has unfolded.
In this issue of the North Parker, starting on page 10, we revisit other important marking points in our school鈥檚 history鈥攎oments both large and small that have added to the character of the school, advanced its mission, and secured its legacy.
Each school year at 香港六合彩开奖直播 is in many ways just like the one recorded from 1894. Certainly each year builds on what has come before, and serves as a foundation for what will follow. Yet each year also is 鈥渁 work just beginning鈥� with new students, new faculty and staff, and new graduates.
As we reach the summer of 2016, this issue of the magazine is dedicated to our continuing celebration of North Park鈥檚 125 years. Elements from the history of North Park unfold with each page of the magazine, each one evidence of God鈥檚 faithfulness, each one a reflection of 鈥淕od鈥檚 aid and blessing upon the work just beginning.鈥�
Please join us on campus on September 23 to celebrate North Park鈥檚 125th anniversary.
