April and May were busy, but good, months at the PSC. We returned from our Spring Retreat and finished the semester strong.
On April 25, we hosted High School Night at the Presbyterian Student Center (see picture). We had high school students from Oconee Presbyterian, Friendship Presbyterian, Covenant Presbyterian, and Alpharetta Presbyterian join us for dinner and worship. It was great to have high schoolers worshiping with college students and for them to see that it is possible to be in college and be a person of deep faith. All together, we had about 75 people there.
The following week, we had our graduates’ night. We celebrated those who had been a part of our community and who were be sent on to other places. It’s difficult to say goodbye, but it’s also a joy to send these students on to the next chapter in their lives.
Finals week followed. We had a great “study break” with pizza, games, etc. (see picture) early in finals week. By the end of the week, the PSC was empty as students left to go home, go to summer jobs, etc.
For those that are in town over the summer, we will have a Bible study on Tuesdays at 6p beginning on June 8 and going through July. Staff will also be around for orientation and other events over the summer, but we won’t have regular hours. If we don’t week you around this summer, we hope to see you on August!
This past Sunday, we hosted “High School Night” at the PSC. We invited some local high school folks to come out and see what campus ministry is all about. We had youth from Covenant Presbyterian and Oconee Presbyterian join us for dinner and worship (pictured are a few of the high school students after worship). Mark and the worship team plugged in for worship rather than go the usual acoustic route–that was pretty cool. After worship, we hung out for a while–I stayed around long enough to get beat at ping pong by someone from Covenant (grrr).
