The one time that dancing was almost allowed at HAC was when the Bears were on the way to the Super Bowl. How so many IFB adherents knew the "Super Bowl Shuffle," I'll never know. Yes, I was (am) one of them.

Couldn't understand it. The Thursday night ladies thing went against all propriety we were instructed to have. The songs - the adoration....... Yes, he was the dad away from home some say. Anyway, I'm stirring the pot I'm sure.

Watching this thread.

For about a year, after work I would go by Sauzers Restaurant across from Tiebels at 30 and 41. This was sometime maybe around 11PM. This was after curfew, and was definitely against the rules. I wonder how many demerits that all adds up to. Over the course of about a year.......

For some reason, since his passing, Billy Graham has become a saint with many of my IFB friends. I can only hope they will think the same of MacArthur.

Some do. Some don't. Thus the Independent part.

Thanks. It's been a while now, but still the tears come at times.

Not minding at all. Glad Vineyard was gone by time I got there.

There were a lot of snide remarks made by the IFB crowd about JM. Honestly, I was often challenged, convicted and inspired by what I heard from him.

When I arrived at HAC, I did not know a soul. I knew who Gail Merhalski and Elaine Colsten were, but they had never seen me. Before the first chapel service a guy from Pennsylvania sat by me and explained what chapel was like. Never remember seeing him again.

Fortunately it only lasted the first year and a few weeks into the second. During summer break I lost a brother in a car accident. A few Sunday nights/ early Monday mornings into the sophomore year, on the way from night bus, the driver in the car I was in fell asleep and almost lost control...
