Mclntyre, pastor of Faith Presbyterian church, was honored Sunday evening at a surprise pot-luck supper on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of his ordination. The pastor believed the party was for recognition of graduates. Serving as chairperson of Fellowship and Outreach, Orval Lucier was master of ceremonies. Warren Krebs, one of the five members of the initial steering committee responsible for seeking to organize a Presbyterian church in McHenry, reminisced about earlier days. He recalled the arrival of the Mclntyre family in February of 1958, when he was named minister of the church. At that time the congregation held services in the Eastwood Manor barn. A year later they were transferred to a tem porary structure on Lincoln road. The present church building was completed and dedicated in June, 1966. Among guests attending the honor night program were Pastor and Mrs. Ellsworth Young of Utica, Pastor and Mrs. Greer Hills of Minonk, Pastor and Mrs. John DiGiacomo of Yorkville and Pastor and Mrs. Larry Lof- felmacher of Marengo. These ministers from Blackhawk P r e s b y t e r y o f f e r e d congratulations and spoke of Mr. Mclntyre's many services to the Presbytery. The Executive and Stated Clerk of the Presbytery, along with other members, sent greetings and. congratulations by letter. The Mclntyres were presented with a cash gift from the congregation to send the family to a National Presbyterian church Mariners Conference, and the G.A.L.S. organization presented Mr. Mclntyre with a tape recorder. The honored minister is a native of Herington, Kas. He graduated from Kansas State College, Manhattan, Kas., in August of 1948 with a B.S. degree in Physical Science. In May of 1955 he graduated from the Louisville Presbyterian Theological seminary, Louisville, Ky., with a Bachelor of Divinity degree. Because of regulation changes within the church, in April of 1971 he was admitted as a Bachelor of Divinity of Louisville seminary to the degree of Master of Divinity. On June 3, 1955, he was or dained to the ministry at First P r e s b y t e r i a n c h u r c h , Grayville, 111., and was com missioned by Freeport Presbytery in February, 1958, to organize a new congregation in th^ McHenry area. The local church was formally organized in July of the following year. The pastor is a member of Blackhawk Presbytery and presently serves as a sub- chairman of the Ministerial Relations committee. He was a member of McHenry Rotary club for nine years and served four years on the district 15 school board. W i t h s e v e n t e e n y e a r s o f service to the McHenry area, he was instrumental in forming a local ministers' group which works together ecumenically.
