The Disciples Divinity House of the University of Chicago
ANNUAL REPORT 2003-2004

Past and Present

"Appreciate the past, but live in the present." Alumnus Robert Sulanke sounded this theme in a conversation this spring. He was summarizing what he was taught in his student days in the thirties and how that teaching informed his ministry. But the theme resonates across the years.

This summer the North American Pacific-Asian Disciples (NAPAD) held their biennial convocation in Chicago. Fifty years before, David T. Kagiwada, who would become one of their founders, graduated from Disciples House and the Divinity School. They met, brimming with plans for new congregations and ministries, and elected an entering Disciples House Scholar, April Lewton, as their moderator. Appreciate the past, but live in the present.
