Be Part of the Veritas Forum Planning Committee!

The Veritas Forum, which was held this year on April 1st, is a forum designed to bring Christians and non-Christians together and start conversations on Jesus and faith. There is indeed a need on Penn’s campus to talk about Jesus and know about what questions non-Christians have about Jesus. God willing, next year we will have Mr. Ken Costa, the chairman of Lazard International and the chairman of the Alpha course, as the guest speaker. Students are needed who are committed to serve Jesus and who are passionate about the vision of the Veritas Forum to help organize the event. If you think you might be interested in being part of the Veritas planning team or you have questions or comments, please email yiyanzhangyyz@gmail.com.

Living Water is back from retreat!!

We had a wonderful time up in the beautiful mountains at Tel Hai Camp! We learned about experiencing God’s love and then expressing God’s love. We can’t just leave retreat with that thought and live life as is. Instead, we need to learn more about it and share the love that God has given us with each other. So read on! We’ve got wonderful opportunities for us to experience and express the love below:

Also, thank you so much to all of our sponsors, speakers, small group leaders, drivers, and FC;s for figuring out logistics and making this retreat possible. We appreciate all of your prayers as we had a safe and blessed trip!
