GCF Newsflash! The Supernatural | 9/27 @7:30pm Kresge (W16-030)

Welcome to the MIT Graduate Christian Fellowship!

The fellowship has spoken! The supernatural is the category which fetched the most votes for the our poll of burning questions. How do the heavenly realms interact with us? Should we expect the miraculous? This week, we have the pleasure of addressing these questions together by exploring the biblical basis for supernatural occurrences and hearing from our very own Sam Perli and Kayleen Moore! 

There will also be a few groups going out to dinner around 6pm before large group. Sign up here by Thursday 8pm, and look for an email revealing your dining partners.

What:             Perspectives On The Supernatural, with Sam P. and Kayleen
Where:          W16-030 (Rehearsal Room B, under the Kresge Auditorium)
When:            Friday, Sept. 27 @ 7:30pm
Contact:         Sam Elder

Recap Lane

Last week we ran around the city completing tasks devised by Joe and Kayleen! Plenty of video content was generated of GCF'ers doing silly things such as singing in public and frog leaping. Luckily, most of the videos were too dark to identify the perpetrators!

Prayer Square

• Pray for those planning the fall retreat this year!
• Pray for GCF'ers to recieve wisdom and courage to invite non-believers to church or GCF events.
• Pray for those seeking God's love but haven't found it yet. Pray that God can help provide a surge which will help them break through whatever is holding them back.
• Pray for God to be in the room when Thrive meets this Saturday. Pray for God to help us create an environment which facilitates the development of spiritual bonds between Thrive members.

Kudos
