This past Sunday, I was humbled to be given the opportunity to conduct a Live Q&A with one of my early mentors, Reverend Donald B. Register.  Reverend Register, pastor of my home church (Sixth Grace Presbyterian Church in Chicago), was celebrating his 50th Anniversary as a minister. With his wife E. Dolores Register, he was feted with a gala reception at the church on December 8th, 2019. In addition to his ministry at Sixth Grace, Register served as a post-graduate urban intern and assistant pastor of Berea Presbyterian Church, a member of the North Side Team Ministry in St. Louis, Mo., and associate for Presbytery Mission for the Presbytery of Chicago. He has also served as a trustee and board member for a number of organizations and schools. He was formerly president of the Oak Park YMCA board and vice-president of the Racial Justice Now Foundation.  Below is a audio link of the interview, for those interested.  Salute to Reverend Register!

Don, stumbled onto this after watching a 2011 documentary of Pruitt-Igoe this evening, reliving our nine years as members of Berea when you were there. Remembered that both you and Carl were part of the Housing Authority Commission ... and that San Hla and I went before it to propose Berea taking over management of Jeff-Vander-Lou, where Jim Sporleder was then director. Reliving old names. Also, relived some of that recently when Zoomed with Diane and Virgil Bodeen two weeks ago. Nostalgia! Our best to you as part of our active youth!

Thank you for posting this interview. Don was pastor with my father, Rev. Carl Dudley, in St. Louis in the 1960s. He is and always will be a family friend.

We’re trying to track down the current (January 2022) whereabouts of Don and Dolores. Our Christmas card to them this year to the Kenilworth Ave., Oak Park address came back “unknown, unable to forward.” we don’t have contact information for their sons. They were wonderful next-door neighbors of ours in Oak Park on Ridgeland Ave.many years ago, And we’ve kept in touch until this year. I’d appreciate any current information that anyone has about them. Thank you.

I used to live with Donald and his family fifty years ago. He was just beginning to his ministry. His family was loving and kind towards me. Happy to know that Donald Junior is doing well. His son Chris was a very quiet and easy going baby. Love and peace to them.
