Pastor Carl Wheeler's 95th birthday on Saturday

On Saturday, January 20, 2007 Pastor Carl Wheeler will be turning 95 years young. You remember this picture above of our meeting in October. Read all about it here. The picture below is that of Pastor Wheeler back in 1934.

He remembers John A. Davis the founder of our college very well. He graduated from PBTS a few months after the death of Dr. John A. Davis on Saturday, March 17, 1934. Feel free to leave a birthday message for him on this blog and I will pass it along to him.

Considering writing down some memories about your time at PBTS? Here are a few starting questions to get the ball rolling

1. How did you hear about PBTS? (Did you hear Dr. John A. Davis preach? The Students League of Many Nations came to your town? A family member graduated? Pastor was a graduate?)

2. What was your first impression of the campus?

3. Impression of the President [Favorite Memory of them](Dr. John A. Davis, Dr. Gordon Davis, Dr. M.C. Patterson, Dr. Kenneth Robb, Dr. Woodrow Kroll, Dr. Dale Linebaugh, Dr. George Miller III)

4. Roomate(s) and where was the room (Old Main Building, Inner Circle {Mother Memorial}, Patterson Hall, Chatlos, etc.)

5. Favorite Professor and Why (Dr. Lowe, Dr. Wagner, Dr. Brown, Rev. Ackerly, Dr. Benson, etc)

6. Funny stories/Pranks that happened or you did

7. Major events that occurred while there (Dr. John A. Davis passing away, new building, etc)

8. Sports teams/Ministry teams you were involved in

9. Best friends and meeting future spouses (The friends you met in college and the friends that became your husband or wife)

10. How PBTS/PBC/Davis help prepare you for ministry and for life

These are just a few ideas to help get the wheels turning. I hope they help. I would love to hear your stories about your time at the school
