Advent/Christmas dinner and social Friday night!
This invitation is coming rather late; still, I hope you can join us for a free holiday meal this coming Friday, December 14. Even if you haven't taken part in any other LCM events this semester, please know you are welcome. There will be plenty of food! We'll begin serving at 7:00 p.m. and go until 9:00. We provide the meal; you can provide the entertainment!! Location: Johnson Center, Room 239A—just one door down the hall from the campus ministry office. And bring a friend if you like!!
Bible study on Thursday evening:
Advent/Christmas Bible Study at the normal time and place: Thursday the 13th at 7:30pm in JC 239. Come explore what the Bible really says about the first Christmas!
Walk the Labyrinth on Monday afternoon.
The LCM prayer labyrinth will be available to the GMU community on Monday, December 17, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. in Room D on the 3rd floor of the Johnson Center (just above the campus ministry office). The labyrinth is a tool for a walking meditation. It can provide an active means of reflecting upon one's life and one's spiritual journey. Come and relax and have some meditative time to pray to God before break! You could also pray about Jesus coming at Christmas!

I conclude this note with words from Scripture, words that the apostle Paul wrote in the 1st century that still have meaning today. They remind of you, dear students, and my thoughts of you over the past few weeks.
"How can we thank God enough for you in return for all the joy that we feel before our God because of you? Night and day we pray most earnestly that we may see you face to face and restore whatever is lacking in your faith.
Now may our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus direct our way to you. And may the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all, just as we abound in love for you." – 1 Thessalonians 3:9-12
Grace and peace,
