You Alone

Our floor is having a worship night with 3rd floor on Monday. It will be at 10:00pm in our Study Room! I hope you all can come. Let's worship together!

so you think you can dance. dance. dance.

Hey Girls...just wanted to let you all know that I am going to be performing at So You Think You Can Dance this Thursday during the ALL SCHOOL PARTY! Gaby and I will be doing a little interpretative/contemporary/dramatic dance for the entertainment and enjoyment of you all. Come support us! I guarantee entertainment!

Free Burrito Halloween!

Join the floor on Halloween (Friday, Oct 31st) for a free burrito from Chipotle. If you come to Chipotle dressed up as a burrito you get one for free...which means just wrap yourself in foil! I will provide the foil on our floor before we leave. So let's meet at 5:00pm in quad 401 to get all burritoed up and then we can head over to Chipotle to get fat and happy! It usually gets pretty busy...cause who doesn't want a free burrito, so we'll try to get there by 5:30pm if you would like to meet us there and already have foil. Get Excited....yay for Halloween Free Food!

Thanks to all of you that came to Brennan Manning!

Just remember that God loves you just as are, not as you should be; because, you're never going to be as you should be!

Brennan Manning

Next week Brennan Manning is coming for a Chapel Series on "The Experience of Jesus as Lord" on Tuesday night at 7:00pm in Newport Mesa. I would love to go and sit as a floor. After Taco Tuesday we will just go straight there and I'll save a row for us to sit in. Let me know if you want to go so I can save the right amount of seats. Brennan Manning is a great speaker and has a lot to say...I hope you can all come, and chapel credit is a plus! Let's use this time to grow spiritually together as a floor!

a word on peace.

The word Jesus would have used for peace is the Hebrew word shalom. Shalom is an important word in the Bible, and is not completely accurate to translate it simply as "peace". For many of us, we understand peace to be the absence of conflict. We talk about peace in the home or in the world or giving peace a chance. But the Hebraic understanding of shalom is far more than just the absence of conflict or strife. Shalom is the presence of the goodness of God. It's the presence of wholeness, completeness. God's desire is for us to live in harmony with him - body, soul, mind, emotions - every inch of our being.

Rob Bell from the Velvet Elvis.

I challenge all of you to really meditate on what God's peace means to you.

The Debates

If you would like to watch the presidential debates....they are currently saved on the DVR in quad 401. Let's get informed before voting day. And if you haven't registered...get on it, you only have a couple weeks left.

Rock the VOTE!

Remember: Register to vote before October 5th so you can vote in the Presidential Election on
November 4th. If you have any questions about how to register just ask me! Educate yourself and know who you're going to vote for. ROCK THE VOTE!

Servin' the City

City Serve was a blast! We went to Mesa Verde Health Care Center, where we had the chance to play games and perform karaoke with the residents. The elderly ladies were so cute, joking around with us and telling us stories. We enjoyed their company...and I'm pretty sure they enjoyed ours. It was a great way to learn from and reach out to the community. Thanks to all of you who showed up!

Parade of Quads

This Wednesday at 7:00pm judges will be traveling to our quads to judge them. So if there is any last minute decorating that you would like to do you only have a couple of days to do it. Put your finishing touches on your quad and let the judging begin!
