“Hometown Tour” Spends the Day in Benton County
It started out as a fun suggestion that morphed in to one of the most delightful events of the fall semester. Since both freshman Catie Rinderknecht and Pastor Mons (most recently) are from Benton County, they thought it would be fun to take a crowd from the Chapel to show off their county. The day started in Luzerne with the ladies of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church welcoming everyone with freshly baked treats. Pastor Mons showed the students the church and surrounding town where he received his first Call. Then they headed over to Atkins. They stopped by the Schanbacher farm to see the cow that scared Catie. The tour concluded with a delicious lunch at the Rinderknechts. The students had so much fun, they now all want to show off their hometowns.
