What's New With Agape

[Paul Chong]

Dear Agape,

Summer in Boston is looking a little dreary right now but only because of the weather. We're up to some great stuff and here's what's up:

Freshman Orientation Tables:

Free 2-3pm on Tuesdays? Want to be the face of Agape for incoming freshman? Agape has an orientation table reserved every week in the Curry Student Center for incoming freshman orientations. Please email cho...@neu.edu if you can volunteer one week!

We Want Your Ideas About Our Night At the Student Center This Fall!!!!!
Traditionally every at the beginning of every fall semester Agape gives away fish at the Night at the Student Center to create awareness about our group. This year we may do something different. Have any ideas? Please let us know. Email cho...@neu.edu with any ideas. The Night at the Student Center is Tuesday, September 8^th. An idea that has gone around is about hosting a game challenge, where a projector is set up with a Wii game attached to have a tournament style activity.

Other ideas:

- Dance Party.

- Give away Oreos and milk but only offer the milk after students fill out a survey about their spiritual views.

- Give out WWJD bracelets and explain what He would do in a variety of wild situations.

What do you think?

CAMPING Weekend Getaway!!!!!
Myles Standish State Forest in Carver, MA weekend of July 18th. How does that sound? We have one volunteer to drive and are looking for others + camping equipment. More details to be discussed at the Thursday night meeting.

Thursday Night: Prayer and Worship!

Worshiping God is what we're made for. Let's enjoy his company and get to know each other through deep prayer and heartfelt time of worship. 433 CSC 7:30pm. That's what we're about right?

Lifegroups: It's not too late
Paul is leading the men's lifegroup on Wednesday at 7:30 and Andrea is leading the Women's lifegroup on Tuesday nights.
Join a lifegroup to develop close friendships, accountability and a greater knowledge of God and scripture.

Morning Prayer: God Listens
Tomorrow Wednesday join us at 7:14 a.m in the Agape office, 240 CSC for morning prayer. Please keep those of us who are sick or stressed in prayer!

If you have any ideas for Agape or any dreams/goals/testimony of God's work in your life please email me. We'll make sure it gets out there.

In Christ,

Paul Chong

Romans 5:3-5
³Not only so, but we^[c] also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; ⁴perseverance, character; and character, hope. ⁵And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.
