Worldwide Klopfenstein Reunion

June 20-21, 2008/the dates for the meeting of the numerous Klopfensteins who are invited from around the world.

To date, there 161 registered from 22 states. This has been an awesome experience--hearing from so many Klopfensteins that I never knew existed. Meeting face to face should be even a greater awesome. Plans are coming together quite well and excitement is running high.

If possible, you should plan to attend. This should be a profitable and informative meeting inasmuch as so many have expressed the desire to bring K memorabilia for review. There are some K history books to be on display. Tom K., Mishawaka, IN, has a manuscript on "A People of Faith," the Klopfenstein story. He'll be taking orders.

I just discovered a website, www.gameo.org, which provides an extensive history of the anabaptists persecution in Europe and ultimate emigration to Canada and the United States. Our K line is included.

So--send registrations to www.klopfensteinreunion.com and meet the rest of us in Grabill, IN. More details are available from the youngest oldest EJKer we know!!!
