Hey everyone! Hope your summer is rockin'! A few upcoming opportunities:
Fireworks! Interested in heading down to the National Mall to catch the fireworks and the National Symphony Orchestra concert on the 4th of July? If so, join Matt and company for the adventure. Check out http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=105991795725 for details.
Cookout: We figure the long holiday weekend calls for a cookout. Stop by Ben Buss's place anytime after 4pm on Sunday July 5th for food & fun! Don't know where that is? Email lutheran@gmu.edu for the address. Potluck contributions appreciated, but certainly not required.
Freshman Orientations: Monday 7/6 and Thursday 7/9 (both this week) in SUB I. The schedule for each orientation: 4pm - we'll meet in Patriot's Lounge (the area outside the Campus Ministry office) to hang out, snack, maybe play some cards, etc. At 5:30pm we'll find out which table is ours and set-up. Then we'll talk to incoming freshmen from 6pm-8pm & tear down. Come for part or all of the time. Email lutheran@gmu.edu with any questions -- or to tell us what size LCM t-shirt you would wear if you don't have one already. The last orientation session will be next week on July 13th (same schedule unless we post otherwise).
Camping? Email lutheran@gmu.edu if you are interested in a weekend camping trip sometime this summer. Those interested will brainstorm a date & details.
FALL RETREAT: Mark your calendar now for this great event the weekend of October 2-4, the cost will be $20/student and we'll spend a fabulous weekend together at Meadowkirk Retreat Center.
Mission Trip Planning Meeting for Summer 2010: Some Metro DC college-age young adults have initiated a conversation regarding a summer 2010 mission trip for college/grad students (or anyone 18-25). We will gather Sunday, July 12, 2PM at First Trinity Lutheran Church (free parking across the street) to find out who is interested and how participants envision such a trip. If you are interested but can't attend, leave a note on the events page of the face book page. If you would like to learn more information, check out the facebook page! at DC Young Adults. You can also access the web page for this at www.dcyoungadults.org
Ideas? If there's something happening in the area that you think we should attend as a group, or an activity you'd like to help us plan, email lutheran@gmu.edu or Facebook Mason Lutherans or find us on Twitter as LCMGMU. We'd love to hear from you!
Grace and peace,
Ben
