OCU: UCR dinner recognizes outstanding service

Each year OCU’s University-Church Relations department teams up with the Wimberly School of Religion to recognize individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the vitality of their community through their connection to OCU and the church.

This year, former Oklahoma City mayor and OCU trustees chairman Ron Norick of OKC-St. Luke’s and the Lemon Family of OKC-Church of the Servant will be awarded the prestigious Bishop Milhouse Award.

Additionally, the Wimberly School of Religion will be honoring Mark Crenshaw (‘97) as their Distinguished Alumnus for 2018 and Brandon Katzir (‘10) as their Rising Star.

The honorees will be recognized at the annual UCR Appreciation Dinner on Friday, Dec. 7 at 6 pm. The dinner will also serve as a mini-reunion for those active in OCU religious life from the graduating classes of 1988, 1998, and 2008.

The evening also includes the opportunity to attend the Vespers choir concert, the “Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberly” stage production, or the dance show “Home for the Holidays.”

Tickets for the event are available at www.okcu.edu/ucrdinner.
