I am often asked “why are you still involved at MHS”? “It is easy”, I answer. The four years I spent as a student were life changing for me and the four years both of my girls spent at MHS were life changing for them (although I’m not sure they have realized that yet)! I truly believe in the mission of MHS and the dream that Don Oliver and others had when they started the school over 45 years ago. A strong, healthy future for MHS is worth working for and I want to play an active role.

Whether you have been an alum for many years (like me) or you are a new MHS alum, I trust you can look back and see how much your time at MHS meant to you. During your years at Maranatha you benefited from having wonderful teachers, great friends and the generosity of those who came before you. Now it is your turn to “give back.” I hope you will give back to current and future MHS students as you are able.

The Alumni Department is here for you and we hope to see you around campus soon.

God bless each of you as you remember your days at MHS!
