1987 MV's Postcard from Asbury -Sep.14


[postmarked Sep 14 1987]
Hi, folks!  Wanted to bring you up to date after the first week at Asbury.  Orientation (Tues-Thurs) was nice but about 2 days too long.  Wednesday we registered for classes and I'll be taking 14 hours this semester.  My classes ae Minister of Education as Servant, Church Music History, Hymnology, Singing Seminarians, Chapel Choir, Private Piano & Private Voice.  The first 3 are all 3 credit hours, the last 4 are 1 credit hour classes.  14 credit hours is considered a full load here – I can see how 14 hours would be a lot for M.Div. students, but music will never be as hard as Greek.

Shakertown didn't have any openings, but I did reserve a double guest room for you for 9/25.  My suggestion for dinner is to look in the Mobil Guide at Lexington, which would be not more than 30 minutes away.

Yesterday we went to a Pro-Life Rally held on the Capitol steps in Frankfort.  Melody Green & J.C. Wilke were the speakers.  Today we went to Wilmore UMC and I was amazed at how big it was.  There were gobs of College Students there.  The seminary has a big buffet every Sunday for lunch, so there were a lot of people from town there.  See you Thurs. night.

Love, MV
