FUGE celebrates 40 years of ministry to students
By LifeWay Christian Resources Staff NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Randy Parks remembers the music, the games, and the wacky events from the first summer he attended Centrifuge in 1979. But most of all, he remembers the clear message of the gospel and the strong conviction that a life following Christ was exciting and worth living. That summer at Glorieta, New Mexico, when Parks was only a high school junior, laid the foundation for his future as a hospital chaplain. “Centrifuge changed the direction of my life,” said Parks, now a chaplain at Newton Medical Center in Newton, New Jersey. “It was there I answered what I believed to be a call to follow God in the path of Christian ministry. “Since that time, I have lived out that calling through the local church, in university chaplaincy and for many years now as a health care chaplain.” Parks credits his summers at Centrifuge for helping him develop a regular quiet time and sparking a passion for evangelism. “It changed my life forever.” Parks is not alone.
