This Friday, Sara Ray will be speaking on Tithing, its place in stewardship, and its role in the Christian life. Is tithing mandated, what makes it good, and what if anything is special about 10%? Also, is it tithing if the money set aside is going somewhere besides your local church community? Could someone tithe to a charity or other organization?
Sara will be addressing what the Bible says about tithing. She is a graduate student here at OSU finishing up as a theorist in the Physical Chemistry Group, and is a very active member and planner in CGSA. It will be a treat to hear her speak about this important and very Biblical subject.
We will be meeting at 6:30 on Friday at Summit United Methodist Church on 16th Ave.
As usual, we will be going out to eat at a place voted upon by those who answer a CGSA online poll. The poll has been sent out through the Yahoo group, and I encourage you to vote if you plan to attend; those who do not vote cannot complain about the selection. If you are not a member of the Yahoo group and would like to be, you can join through www.osu-cgsa.org . This website also lists upcoming meeting topics and activities.

This Friday, CGSA will be hosting a research social, in which several of our members will present papers and posters from their respective research projects, as well as answer questions. On deck for plenary presentations are students from English, biology, and music, and several students from the sciences and engineering will present posters as well. The main event will be in 2136 Newman-Wolfrom, which is at the corner of W 18th and College Rd. It is a secure building, so we will be meeting at around 6:30 at the courtyard nearby and Jon Helmus will let us in. Please come join us, both to hear some interesting presentations and encourage one another.[ add comment ]

We invite you to join us at our weekly meeting, which will be held Friday, June 27, in the basement of Summit United Methodist Church. Summit UMC is located on 16th Avenue west of Indianola, about a block east of High & 16th (see http://tinyurl.com/6a7stc for further details). Free parking is available in the church lot or nearby on the street. We will share in fellowship and discussion, and will go out to dinner afterward at an inexpensive restaurant. This week, Luke Corwin will be leading our discussion, which will focus on the definition of a Biblical model of stewardship and its potential application to how we manage the resources God has given us.[ add comment ]
