The reunion of the last Grade 13 MEI Grad Class of 1960 took place on May 25 and 26; starting on the evening of the 25th and concluding with a noon lunch on the 26th at the Columbia Bible College Conference Centre. A total of fifty one people were in attendance to meet, greet and fellowship with one another. Several class members were asked to talk about their experiences as a student at MEI and how it had impacted their life in the fifty seven years since the graduation. Harry Doerksen, accompanied by Eva Dueck, led in some general singing. Arnie Peters, one of our classmates, gave the address on the theme of “Finishing Well”.
