outhfulness—Ponce de Leon tried to find it in a fountain of
water. Many middle-aged adults try to find youthfulness in a
new sports car or a new hair cut. Youthfulness is intriguing
for children and adults as well. And there are several who
provide us with a marvelous example of youthful energy
even though they are 70 years old or more.. .like Dr.James
T.Jeremiah.
The Cedarville College Alumni Association continues to grow each year
with a large population of young alumni.In fact,the Association has added
over 5,000 members since 1985.That is quite ajump!And our young
alumni are involved in some incredible opportunities to serve the Lord.
In this issue ofInspire, you will read about many ofour young alumni.
Some graduated on June 4,1994 and havejust begun their career path. You will also read about
several who graduated afew years ago and are involved in their communities and local churches.
Getting used to a whole new lifestyle after college is no easy task! Isn't God good in that He provides
examples and assistance for the youth through older Christians while breathing freshness into us
through young people? I hope you are refreshed through this publication.
Ben and I are thankful for the opportunities God has given us to work with young adults at Cedarville
College. We believe the influence we have had and lessons learned is great practice for"Baby Smith"
who is due to arrive in late October 1994.Ofcourse,we will have to parent our way through
childhood before getting to the teen years and beyond.You will definitely know who I am at
Homecoming 1994!By the way,the dates for Homecoming are October 14 and 15,and you will want
to be on campus for the many events that are planned.Details for the weekend can befound on the
back cover of this issue.
Have a relaxing summer,and be sure to spend some time with someone young!
