New Night for "Men of God" Bible Study
Sorry ladies, this post is just for the guys:
Hey guys,
In case you haven't already heard, our Men of God Bible study is moving to a new night this semester, in order to accommodate as many guys' schedules as possible. We will kick things off for the semester this Monday, January 28. The time and place remain unchanged -- 7:15pm at our campus house.
We will be continuing our study of the life of Christ through the gospel of Mark. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say it has been an inspiring study so far. I always expect a Bible study to be good, because God's word is always worthwhile, but this study through Mark has simply exceeded my expectations. Whether you have been coming last semester or you would just be starting, I hope you will come join us for the rest of this study this semester.
If you've never been to our campus house before, we are only one block from Lee Hall, and just 100 yards from the nearest bus stop. You can get clear, easy directions right here off our web page. Just look on the right side of your screen. Call me if you have any questions: 540-552-8292.
Hope to see you there, whether it's your first time, or 50th.
7:15pm Mondays
Thanks.
Steve

Start the new year off right -- catch a ride to church with us
Maybe you haven't been in the habit of going to church since you got to Virginia Tech, but you've been thinking you want to get back to doing that. If so, you are more than welcome to catch a ride to church with us.
Several of us meet at our campus house every Sunday morning at 10:30 to carpool to Belmont Christian Church for their contemporary worship service.
Whether you've gotten out of the habit of going to church, are simply still looking around for the right church, or whatever, we hope you'll join us.

And feel free to bring a friend along with you.
For a map and simple directions to CCVT's campus house only one block from Lee Hall, just look on the top right side of your screen. If you live off campus and ride the bus, we are only 100 yards from the bus stop on Washington Street.
So that's 10:30am Sunday at CCVT's campus house.
Hope you can join us.

Sakura and Snow
Hey everybody,
If I haven't seen you yet this year, let me say I hope you had a fantastic break and are off to a good start in the new semester.
So far this semester the only chance we've had to get together as a whole group has been Oasis last night. So the Core Group Team decided that we should go out to eat together this weekend. We are planning to meet at the campus house 5:15pm Friday to carpool to Sakura Japanese Steakhouse. That's the one in the vicinity of the New River Valley Mall, but across 460 and closer to Kmart. They don't throw knives or build flaming volcanoes out of an onion, but on the plus side, there's not a long wait, and the prices are reasonable, and the food is still really good. So on the whole, it's a great place to go out to eat with friends. Yelp.com says the average meal ends up under $10 even with a drink, tax and tip.
After dinner we'll come back to the campus house to hang out and play some games. If you have any games you got for Christmas or something that you'd like to play, feel free to bring them. We'll probably give it a try.
Of course, all of this is contingent on the weather. The National Weather Service is predicting 2-4 inches of snow Friday afternoon tapering off in the evening. So we will keep an eye on the weather and I'll email you Friday afternoon around 4:30pm or sooner if we need to cancel our plans. Another possibility is that we could still meet at the campus house and just go out to eat someplace closer here in Blacksburg, if necessary. Also, if conditions are right, some of us might decide to go sledding or build a snowman. So if that sounds like fun to you, come equipped with the proper attire in case we get a chance to do that.
If you don't get an email from me saying it's canceled you can assume we are still on for 5:15pm Friday at the campus house.
So now, what are you rooting for -- Sakura, or more snow? I don't know, they both sound like a lot of fun to me!
Hope to see you Friday evening.
