St. Alban’s Chapel, The Citadel, to Celebrate 75th Anniversary, April 15
On April 15, St. Alban’s Chapel at The Citadel will hold its 75th Anniversary celebration. St. Alban’s Chapel reaches Citadel cadets with the gospel and trains them to go out into the world as transformative disciples of Christ. It is a ministry of The Diocese, Church of The Holy Cross, Citadel alumni and friends. As we commemorate over 75 years of ministry, we will honor the past, celebrate the present and anticipate the future growth of ministry. This Anniversary Celebration will feature a dinner with Bishop FitzSimons Allison as the Guest of Honor, with other Special Guests to include Gen. John Grinalds, former president of The Citadel. Bishop Allison will help us remember the past through a brief presentation on the remarkable life of Dr. William Porcher DuBose, Citadel Class of 1855. Dean DuBose had a transformative encounter with Christ at The Citadel that changed the trajectory of his life. Following graduation and the War Between the States he eventually became the Dean of the School of Theology at the University of the South at Sewanee. There he mentored two generations of clergy from all over the South. Most historians regard Dean DuBose as the most significant voice to emerge from the Episcopal Church, and he is believed to be the only Citadel graduate and South Carolinian who has a feast day (18 August) in the calendar of the Episcopal and Anglican Churches in America. Most of the evening will celebrate the current ministry of the St. Alban’s Chapel Society and Student Vestry. One current student recently shared: The Saint Albans Vestry has also been a huge help to me. Even though we are supposed to be teachers to knobs, I have learned more about God in the past year than I have in my whole life. Saint Albans to me is the clearest picture of what I think Jesus wanted the Church to become. It is kind, it is loving and above all, it is faithful to its mission. I was initially a skeptic. Now every week I receive the undiluted word of God and only find myself wanting more. I read The Bible. I pray. I help others come to their own faith in the Lord. Where else can you find testimonies of this and other 18-22 college students who are coming to Christ and being discipled in their faith? This is to be celebrated! Looking forward in ministry will include the unveiling of new ministry opportunities at The Citadel and beyond. Exciting advances in technology, understanding of deeper discipleship methods, and outreach to campuses around the state will be shared and cast as a vision for the future. This event is sponsored by the St. Alban’s Society Board and chaired by Myron and Ann Harrington of Charleston. It will be held at The Carolina Yacht Club, E Bay Street, Charleston. To register or host a table, contact Anna Smith, event coordinator, at [email protected].
