Walk for Life raises nearly $8,000

[MAY 15, 2001]  "The weather was perfect for the walk," said Jennifer Boeke, director of Lincoln’s Crisis Pregnancy Center. On Saturday, May 5, almost 40 people participated in the Walk for Life. Of the group, 30 individuals were sponsored walkers.

Boeke admitted that the attendance was down slightly from last year, but the amount of funds raised during the day was still equal to last year’s total. During the day, CPC raised $7,100 through sponsored walkers, a bake sale and a T-shirt sale. Boeke commented that she was glad the walk was downtown, because some people saw the crowd and came over just to donate. Adding donations made before and after May 5, the CPC has raised nearly $8,000 to help pregnant women and girls in crisis situations.

The group walked around the perimeters of Scully and Latham Park twice. Also, Pastor Don Hoover of Lincoln Bible Church gave a devotion and talk on adoption. A recently adopted 1- to 2-month-old baby boy was in the crowd.

Director Jennifer Boeke offers a huge thanks to the 20 to 25 businesses that donated door prizes for participants.

Niebuhr family and their theological contributions to be celebrated

[MAY 4, 2001]  The Neibuhr Historic Marker Committee of Lincoln announces celebration activities on Saturday, June 23, at St. John United Church of Christ. The date and place were chosen because it was here that the internationally known theologian, teacher and Christian ethicist Reinhold Niebuhr was ordained in 1913. Well known for his theological writings, he was for a time virtually unknown as the author of the "Serenity Prayer" made popular by the 12-step community and revered by many throughout the world.

The dedication of the Illinois State Historic Marker will celebrate the entire Niebuhr family for their contributions to theology and for their service to the Lincoln area.

For updates on the plans, call Lincoln Public Library at (217) 732-8878.
