Our cover article in the upcoming Spring 2011 issue of Multnomah magazine came with some amazing photos from an alumni family serving in Nepal - Jonathan and Taryn Isensee. There were far too many to put in the Magazine, so we decided to post them at the space below.

Dr. Willard Aldrich was a Multnomah Founder, Professor, President, and Trustee. He was a force for advancing the Gospel who's equal is rarely known. He lived a fruitful life on the Earth for nearly 101 years.
We've been digging through archives and working with family members to find some memorable pictures for you. What we learned was that Willard was a man among men. He named bears, built the A-Frame, wrote poetry, worked on a farm, churned ice cream, photographed nature, preached the gospel, and left a legacy seen through the nearly four generations he influenced (Want proof? Just try counting his grandchildren and great-grandchildren!).
Take a second to read the poem in the photo below that Dr. Aldrich wrote about this bear pictured here that he named "Virginia"...

Several companies and donors have stepped up with supplies (praise God!) and many of you have stepped up with a commitment to serve, but we still need more! It's a big job.
Rigler Elementary in NE Portland is going to open for classes in a few weeks. Look at the pictures below and know that there is a lot to do before our community's kids show up.
(Oh yeah, there will be food and drink - especially at the BBQ afterward!)
