Do you miss English Conversation? Yes it was nice to take a break during May – especially if everyone is so busy with graduation and finals and travel and so on – but we are happy to remind everyone that English Conversation starts again next week June 10!

We encourage you to tell new people about this activity – the summer is a good time to welcome new students/scholars!

And please remember to bring your nametag if you have one!

Movie night! then meet new pastors this Friday

Small change of plan.

Because we do not have English Conversation in May – why not have a movie night? That way people can come and have fun and then we can meet the new pastors of University Baptist Church.

We invite you to movie night this Friday starting at 6:30 p.m. (a little earlier than other movie nights) in the chapel. We will turn the chapel into a movie theater! There will be free drinks and snacks including delicious popcorn. We have not decided which movie yet but probably “Megamind“. Something that is fun and funny for both children and adults. Children are welcome.

You can drive yourself or you can ride on the church bus which will pick up at:

  • Edward Gay at 6:15 p.m.
  • Alaska at 6:17 p.m.
  • Tiger Towers at 6:18 p.m.
  • Nicholson at 6:20 p.m.
  • Tigerland at 6:25 p.m.
  • Brightside bus stop at 6:28 p.m.

Please allow 5-7 minutes for the bus to arrive because of weather or traffic.

And then – Many of you know that University Baptist Church supports Church of the Nations. And for more than a year University Baptist Church has not had a pastor. But they have found two excellent ministers – Mike Massar and Griff Martin – that we hope will become co-pastors. They will be here this week to visit and meet people and to speak to the church on Sunday. And Church of the Nations has a chance to visit with them this Friday May 13 at 8:15 p.m. in the chapel. There will be some light snacks and drinks.

We understand the end of the semester is a busy time for many of you. But if you have time we would love for internationals and Americans to have a chance to meet these two people and to share with them about Church of the Nations.

(Think of it this way. Church of the Nations is like a university department and Pastor Rick is the chairperson. The pastors of University Baptist Church are like deans of the university – Rick will work for them and with them.)
