Sorry for the second email. We've ironed out a location the LAST 747 worship gathering of the school year Wed. 5/6: the sanctuary at St. George's United Methodist Church: 4910 Ox Road (across from Giant/University Mall). Take a break from the stress of the week to re-center on God, worship, discuss, sing, pray, and more! Arrive there at 7:47pm...or catch a ride from SUB 1 room 207 at 7:30pm. We'll end by 9pm to get you back to campus by 9:15pm. See students talk about worship at http://GMU747.org
*** FIRST SUMMER ACTIVITY: Movies/Games in the Bistro, Wed. 5/13, 6:30pm-10pm. Celebrate the end of finals by relaxing in community! Bring your dinner along if you'd like! Bring a friend! All are welcome! ***
SUMMER EMAIL LIST: We'll probably gather once/week to do something fun, like mini-golf, watching a movie, eating dinner, playing games, disc golf, a bike ride, or whatever. This is open to students from other schools who are living/working in northern Virginia in the summer, so ask your friends if they want on the list too! If you'd like to be on our summer email list, please let me know: lutheran@gmu.edu
CALL FOR PICTURES: If you've taken any pictures at LCM events (including co-sponsored events like the Retreat, 747 Worship, Hunger and Homeless Action Week, or the spring break trip), I would love it if you would please burn me a CD or let me pull them off a thumb drive. Thank you!
Living the Questions: Dream. Think. Be. Do. -- check out this video promo & let me know if you think you might be interested in discussions based on these videos next year.
==> THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: One of our Board members was telling us last night that whenever you are down in the dumps, think of Job. It isn't a matter of rejoicing in the suffering of others, but rather resting in the knowledge that others have been through things we can scarcely imagine. Yet, God is with us...usually in mysterious ways we can hardly comprehend. So as you finish classes and begin exams, remember that God is with you. May you feel peace amidst the stress.
God, sometimes we feel alone, and that our load is to heavy to bear. Yet, we trust that somehow, you are with us. Please help us carry our burdens, and give us the strength to go on. Thank you for all the blessings and opportunities we've been given. In the name of Jesus the Christ we pray, AMEN.

Friday 5/8 at Noon - Saturday 5/9 at 5pm at Gallaudet in DC. Email lutheran@gmu.edu if you are interested.
