NEW!! Photos from 1974!

These are some photos taken at Sky Ranch Colorado the week of 18-24 AUG 1974.

We were will a group from First Presbyterian Church, in Michigan City IN.  Our church was next door to St Paul Lutheran.  Some of the people I remember include Rev Craig Loving, Rev Bob Kuehner,  Rev Bill Hennessey, Roger Lubs, Carol & Kathy Comin.

The Late Dale Trueax was the leader of our group. God did many wonderful things that week.

God Bless
In Christ
