Come learn about the Holy Spirit!

Written by duncan on February 17th, 2011

Hey Outpost!

There’s lots of cool things happening this weekend! Check it out…

Have you ever wondered about the Holy Spirit? Seems like He’s the least talked about person of the Trinity. Some people don’t even recognize the role of the Holy Spirit in our own lives! Sure, the doctrines and ideas of the Holy Spirit can seem a bit strange. We are lucky enough to have with us this weekend, Dick Schroeder from our own Big Sky Chi Alpha. He’s going to be talking all week long about the Holy Spirit. Here are some opportunities to come hang out with Dick!

Thursday, Feb 17 – Come eat lunch at noon with Dick Schroeder in the LSC dining hall

Thursday, Feb 17 – Come listen to Dick Schroeder speak at Outpost – 7pm – LSC 228

Friday, Feb 18 – @ 5pm, Come to the Holy Spirit Dig-In at JNick’s house (2218 Ayrshire) and bring something to eat potluck style. We will have a huge meal together and learn about the Holy Spirit!

Saturday, Feb 19 – 9am-9pm, come for a lengthy, in depth study of “The Father Heart of God” at the Murfler’s (3019 Rustic Ct.) Bring a sack lunch, and $5 for dinner.
