FIFTH WEEK OF LENT
March 9-15, 2008
This is the last week of class before Spring Break begins. Unfortunately, the University's break coincides with Holy Week, so many of our student members will be at the beach, in the mountains, hiking the AT, sleeping at home, or traveling out of town--beginning Friday, March 14. Don't worry ... we will carry on with "Worship in the Beauty of Holiness." See the enclosed Super Big Holy Week Postcard as a reminder ...
