Grandparent’s Day
August, 2024
Dear KCU Grandparent,
I hope you will make a special effort to attend KCU’s annual Grandparent’s Day on Thursday, September 19th. Grandparent’s Day is one of the most well-received events we host on campus each year. You, as a grandparent, play such an important role in the lives of your grandchildren, and our hope is to help that engagement continue through the college years. The day is intentionally relaxed enough that it allows for you to accompany your grandchild to chapel, lunch, classes, or simply spend time on the campus your grandchild now calls home.
This year’s speaker for our Grandparent’s Day chapel service is Gus Andrews. Gus is a 1979 graduate of Kentucky Christian (College) University and, along with his wife Lynn, a grandparent of five; Odessa, Omri, Olan, Addy, and Benny. They are a real handful for which both Mawmaw and Pawpaw are truly thankful! Gus looks forward to joining the rest of the KCU family this year for Grandparent’s Day 2024!
We encourage you to inform your grandchild of the schedule provided below and arrange for them to join you for Chapel Service at 9:30 am. The schedule for Grandparent’s Day 2024 is as follows:
| Event | Time | Location |
