1. This Friday is our next large group meeting! We will be meeting at 6:30 in Dillon 361. This will be our Sharing Night. We are looking for people who want to share with others what God is doing in their lives. You would only need to speak for 3-5 minutes. If you would like to sign up to share, please let us know by November 4th. We will have a short open mic time at the end, if you feel inspired to say something that night. We will also have worship and an exciting social that night! We can’t wait to hear how God is working in students’ lives. Please email us back asap if you would like to speak this Friday!
2. Help us spread the word about our Annual High School Invitational on Friday, Nov. 20th at 6:30 in Chrysler Hall North G133 by inviting your church members and others to this event. Either print off a copy of the flyer and map to bring to your local church to announce/post or forward it to on to anyone you know would be interested in attending.

Additional Information: We will also have a gift exchange that night. If you would like to participate in the exchange, be sure to bring in a gift valued at no more than $5.00.

4. Our Coffee Fundraiser will be held November 23rd to the 26th, and we are looking for people to sign up to help. On these days we will sell coffee in the CAW Centre, with the proceeds going towards our winter retreat (SHIFT). This is a great way to lower the cost for everyone. There will be a sign up sheet at the next large group if you are interested in helping out.
