On Saturday I checked my mailbox and found the attached promotional flyer.

According to Google, my mailbox is situated 640 miles from Hyles Anderson College, where I graduated in 1981. I have only visited the campus one time since then, 25 years ago. I have had no communication with anyone from the college or church since. I may have given my contact information to a nice guy, named Marshall in 2001, but I'm not even sure of that. And yet after all of this time and distance, I received this, addressed to me at my current address, even though I have moved several times since 2001.

I'm not complaining. I do recall getting some other promotional flyers in the past, but I couldn't provide details. However, after all of this time, I'm still surprised (and even impressed a little) that they could find me. I'm not sure they would be very proud to call me a graduate but I don't know if I'm proud to call myself an alumnus, so maybe we're even.

I hope they have a good conference. Maybe I should let someone know I won't be coming!

My husband loved the college and worked there for many years. He would call the college and talk to different people . Never one time did I receive anything from the college. When Danny died my friend ask if I received anything from the college as a sympathy card NO! But his friends and co workers all sent me cards with checks knowing he had no life insurance because of his health. That use to really bother him I would reassure him God takes care of his own
 
It’s sad to see how something that was supposed to take up just four years of your lives, has instead become the primary focus of the remainder of your lives.
