A hearty welcome to all as we fall into routine this week!
This Week:
Monday is Labor Day, so weekly prayer will not meet. We'll resume September 12th at 9:00 in the Memorial Union, Charter Room.
Tuesday, September 7:
Thinking about Faith meets at 7:30 at Dr. Tim O'Connor's house. We'll be talking about chapter 1 of Mark Noll's new book, Jesus Christ and the Life of the Mind. The 22-page chapter is called "A Place to Stand...From Which to See." This chapter is attached to this email for those who haven't received the book yet. We meet at Tim's home, 3119 S. Forrester, at 7:30 p.m.
Wednesday, September 8:
Our first GFM Manuscript Study of the year will meet on Wednesday. We're studying the book of Acts. We meet in Ballantine Hall 004. Kerilyn Harkaway-Krieger and Dr. Tarez Graban lead. Manuscript Study aims to take in the Biblical text in context, including discussion of its literary style, audience, history, and other cool stuff like that.
Looking ahead:
On Saturday, September 17, we're taking some time to enjoy God's good world by getting together for an early-fall hike at the beautiful McCormick’s Creek State Park, just 7 miles west of Bloomington. We'll start hiking at 4 and finish up grilling burgers & hot dogs (and treats!) at the Maple Grove shelter.

- Directions: From Bloomington, take State Route 46 West through Ellettsville, about 7 miles to the park entrance.
- Ride Sharing: Entrance to the park costs $5 per car for Indiana plates and $7 for out-of-state plates, so please email Laura Freeze <lfreeze@imail.iu.edu> to find a ride! Note to the strong-legged and sneaky: pedestrians & bikes pay $2 per person, as do the passengers of buses or vans.
- Food sharing: If your last name begins with A-M, please bring a side dish to share. N-Z, please bring a dessert OR something to drink. But please, please, if it comes down to either coming empty handed or not coming at all, for heaven's sake, come! Come! We know how it is.
