LENTEN DEVOTIONS: We're sending out daily devotions until Easter, each including a scripture passage, brief thoughts, and a short prayer. They are sent as messages to the "Lenten Devotions" group and/or you can view them online and/or subscribe by email/RSS at http://lentendevotions.blogspot.com.
DISCUSSION GROUP ON FAITH: Share an afternoon snack and explore some of the challenges of our hearts and the beliefs of the Christian faith. We discuss our thoughts, experiences, and questions as Pastor Lisa Hufford guides us through ideas of various Christian thinkers while staying rooted in scripture. Only two meetings left! Wed 3/18 & 3/25 at 4:30pm in SUB 1 Patriot's Lounge (2nd floor on the blue couches).
747 -- WEEKLY CREATIVE WORSHIP: We gather each week to worship, discuss, sing, pray, and more! Wednesday 3/18 in SUB I room B (3rd floor). Rededicate yourself to God this Lent by making the sacrifice of giving, and gifting, your time in prayer, reflection, and worship. When we journey in Lent, we journey together. Bring a friend! Every week is a different experience. See http://GMU747.org for future locations and other information -- or check out the Facebook group.
GAME NIGHT : Come hang out and play some of your (and our!) favorite board games and card games! If you want to, feel free to bring a snack to share. 5pm-11pm on Friday 3/20 (come for all or part of the time) in JC 3rd floor meeting room B. ALL are welcome! Facebook event
THEOLOGY PUB: Gather at Brion's Grille in University Mall (across Braddock from GMU) to eat, drink, and talk about God, faith, religion, and how they intersect life in our world.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS SUMMER? HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT SUMMER CAMP?
You think I'm joking? Nope -- being a camp counselor was one of the most powerful summers of my life. Summer camp changes lives -- both for the campers and the counselors. I would love it if our dedicated faithful students spent this summer in the daily lives of young people. Have I wet your appetite? Drop me a line and we can chat about great places to spend your summer!
