Other lectureship activities

The annual lectureship at Abilene Christian University is more than a series of lectures.

Each year, people are honored for their contributions to the university and to society, and auxiliary meetings and conferences are held on a variety of topics.

William and Betty Tate of Grapevine were honored Friday as Parents of the Year. They are the parents of twin daughters who are current ACU students, as well as three daughters who have graduated.

At noon Sunday Nancy Miller of Abilene will be honored as Outstanding Alumnus of the Year during a luncheon at the Abilene Civic Center. She is the executive director of Christian Homes of Abilene.

At noon Monday, the Christian Service Award will be given to John and Ruth Stevens of Abilene. The former ACU president and city councilman and his wife will be honored for their lifetimes of service.

On Wednesday registration begins for the 14th annual Conference on Youth and Family Ministry. Registration will be from 2-4 p.m. in the campus center. During the two-day conference on Thursday and Friday, Drs. David Lewis and Carley Dodd will present the findings of their national research on the sexual morality of adolescents in the churches of Christ and its impact on spiritual development.

On Friday and Saturday, the Christians in Theatre Arts Conference will be held in Sewell Theater. Registration is at 11 a.m. Friday.

Performances will include "A Cloud of Witnesses" at 5 p.m. Friday by alumni David and Donjalea Chrane, "Wait Until Dark" at 6:45 p.m. Friday by ACU students, "Dusty Pedestal" at 3 p.m. Saturday by ACU students and a one-man show at 7:30 p.m. Saturday by alumnus Curt Cloninger.
