IVCF/Groshes: 11/09 Prayer Calendar, 12/09 Central PA Dessert
Posted by tom | Nov 1, 2009
Like many students who grew up in a Christian home, Tim [Keller] was not sure what to do with his faith when he began college. So he put it on the shelf and did nothing. “I wouldn’t have at the time said I don’t believe. But on the other hand, I wasn’t a Christian, as I look back on it now,” he said. The small InterVarsity fellowship at Bucknell reached out to him and invited him into a small group Bible study. “They weren’t quite sure where I was; and I wasn’t sure where I was,” he said. “But at the end of my sophomore year I sensed that I had met God.” -- Excerpt from "InterVarsity alumni -
Tim Keller," by Gordon Govier, 10/06/09, http://www.intervarsity.org/news/intervarsity-alumni-tim-keller
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
A quick note to
- pass along the November 2009 Prayer Calendar. We rejoice in your standing with us in prayer. If you desire to join our prayer team and have not already responded to our previous email, please do so at this time. At present we have 15 who replied with the intention of weekly intercession. Note: Page 2 of the November 2009 Prayer Calendar has a general calendar of activities for the 2009-2010 Campus Mission.
- alert friends in South Central PA.
- We'll gather for prayer, praise, and updates on Thursday, December 3, 7pm, Acorn Farms (1/2 mile south of 283, Exit Rt 772, Manheim/Mount Joy). The dessert will feature Bob Ives, retired pastor of Grantham Brethren in Christ. Bob will reflect upon the value of InterVarsity's campus ministry in his own life and the value he sees in the "coaching" of followers of Christ in which Tom's engaged both locally and nationally. Hope you can join us. Also, please extend an invitation to friends who may desire to learn more about the campus mission. RSVP to us by November 25.
Day-by-Day by His Grace,
Tom & Theresa Grosh
