The semester is waning now that we’re into the last full week of classes for the semester. There are still some things coming down the road for CrossSeekers Campus Ministry, and we thought it would be good to let you know what’s happening through the last two weeks of the semester.
Breakfast Crew finishes the semester on Tuesday morning (Dec. 4) in the Academic Quad outside Main Hall from 7:30-8. Yes, it’s early, but come out and help distribute free breakfast bars to your fellow students. Or, come get something free to put in your own stomach.
Tuesday gives you another chance to eat as the Commuter Lunch also has its last gathering for those of you who make your way to campus from home each day. We’ll meet in Sykes around noonish and hang out for a while to get to know each other and engage in relevant discussions. This lunch is geared toward commuter students, but anyone is welcome to join in.
On Wednesday, Dec. 5, Brodie and Becky will host the CrossSeekers Campus Ministry Christmas Bash beginning at about 7 p.m. in their apartment. There will be snacks and plenty of fun. You’ll want to come with a festive mood and a wrapped gift ($10 or less) for our first-ever Dirty Sana Gift Exchange. It’s our way of getting together and saying “Merry Christmas!” Come join in the fun and bring a friend!
Next Wednesday (Dec. 12th), we’ll be gathering together at The Journey (200 S. Church St.) for a study break during finals week. Come out anytime between 5:30 and midnight to enjoy food, video games, movies, pool, foosball, board games, and plenty of friends. We just want to have a good time and get a break from all the stress of finals week. Join in on the fun and bring as many people as you’d like. We just want to have a great time together!
And don’t forget that we’ll still be here next semester. We’ll kick off our Impact gatherings with discussions on some of the tough sayings of Jesus. Then, we’ll have a guest speaker join us on Feb. 20th to share about apologetics. He is a leading scholar in apologetics and has been featured in Lee Strobel’s latest book The Case for the Real Jesus. We’ll also be taking part in our annual midwinter retreat. Incounter Weekend will take place Feb. 8-10 and will cost you about$50. This retreat brings together collegiate students from all across Pennsylvania and New Jersey who are seeking an authentic encounter with Christ and are looking to make an impact on their campuses.
So there’s a head’s up to get you ready for the next couple of weeks of this semester and a brief overview of what’s coming at the beginning of next semester. We look forward to seeing you out soon!
