I've known Dr. John Friesen, (professor at the Canadian Mennonite University in Winnipeg, Manitoba) for many years and have also taken some of his church history courses. I always found it mind boggling how he could rattle off the dates of events that happened centuries ago, just as if it all occurred a few years ago. He's certainly helped me understand not only Hutterite History better, but Church History as well.
I was in attendance when Dr. Friesen was honoured and people were given the chance to thank him for all he'd done for Hutterites over the years. It was a very touching event and very well deserved. You can read more about it here:
