Help Wanted
Hi kids! Your local friendly XA president here with a few housekeeping notes...
- XA Large Group Meetings WILL be in 073 DeBot right off the bat this semester. I've been speaking with our very special friends in Center Reservations for the past two days and they assured me 073 will be ready in time for Sunday. We should be good to go...*should be*... So, 7.07 Sunday Night in 073. Bring friends, bring yourself!
- XA is in need of a new Treasurer. Our erstwhile Squirrel is exactly that, effective upon graduation. So we need a leader with a title who can help us out on the organizational level. Let Lars or myself know soon!
- Every academic year, each student organization is required to attend Rerecognition, a boring but nonetheless mandatory two hours of sitting through legal and practical stuff for student organizations. The President is supposed to attend, and I have full intentions of doing so, but being that this is my final semester as a student, it would be wise to have a XA delegate (or a few, if people are so inclined) come along to see what we have to do and be to maintain good standing with the U. If you're at all interested in leadership on an organizational level or just want to be a good XA citizen, let me know.
- We need to find a time for XA prayer as well. While I hope that all y'all and myself are in prayer for our little network of students on your/my own, there is something dynamic about our prayer times together. XA doesn't exist without people sacrificing time to come together and seek God, and now more than ever, we need wisdom and guidance if we are to effectively reach students in a real and transformative way. Plus, our prayer times can be ridiculously fun, too. Everyone is welcome.
- XA is in need of a constitutional revision to maintain SIEO requirements (once every three years.) We'll be talking more about this soon.
SMALL GROUP LEADERS: drop a comment with your times and places. Along with Lars' Athlete Bible Study/Q & A, Seth and CJ's Pray group [men] and a Burroughs Bible Study [ladies], I will be leading a study of more Christian Mystics and other fun Unorthodox figures in Church history [men]. There is also possibility of doing a small-scale Christian Growth Seminar (CGS), if there is enough interest. CGS is a crash-course in the basics of the Christian faith (and a little about XA) that went over quite well two Springs ago. Let me know if you're [anybody] interested.
I think that's about it for now, and most of you are probably in complete agreement and have been for several lines now. Happy Thursday, the first weekend draws nigh!
Watch out for the applesauce baptisms...
