Court. They shared their deep musical message of Rastafarian love, peace, and justice with everyone. Within a week or so, they performed in NYC, and years later, I got the DVD from those NYC concerts. He was a chosen one, a special artist, humanitarian, a Natural Mystic.

]]> Comment on Message from Interim President Jill Harsin by Gail Mulligan https://blogsites.colgate.edu/scene/2016/05/message-from-interim-president-jill-harsin.html#comment-7802 Thu, 12 May 2016 13:07:43 +0000 http://news.colgate.edu/scene/?p=8930#comment-7802 P.S. I looked up a primary reference for the Aug 13, 1843 meeting (https://archive.org/stream/memoirofalfredbe00harviala/memoirofalfredbe00harviala_djvu.txt) and found this:

“This missionary meeting…will be remembered with deep interest for many years…Rev. Eugenio Kincaid, re-turned missionary from [Burma], had preached,
depicting with graphic power the signal triumphs of grace in that heathen land, holding the vast auditory intensely interested for nearly two hours and a half. No ordinary man could have safely followed him. Mere reasoning, or learning, or
oratory would have seemed cold trifling. It re-quired a soul, elevated and capacious, burning with love to Christ, and melting with compassion for a
perishing world.”

Perhaps this explains the lasting memory of that plaque, and it is not so mystifying, after all. It is the power of the Lord Jesus Christ working in the hearts of those He came to save from their sins in order to re-unite them to Him, because God so loved the world. It is only by this, His grace, we are saved. (John 3:16; Ephesians 2:8,9)

Sincerely,
Gail Mulligan (’84)

We are seeing the horrendous results of our turning away from our God at an ever-escalating rate. United States citizens who are called by His Name are humbling themselves, praying and seeking His face, and turning from their wicked ways, so God can do what He says He will do, to hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal our land. (2 Chronicles 7:14)

Gail Mulligan (’84), History major

I was so very blessed to have had a wonderful education at Colgate, and in a beautiful part of our country. Enjoyed both Jill Harsin’s classes and her lovely self, during her first years there.
