Welcome back to OSU for spring quarter. This quarter's CGSA meetings will be focusing on the men in women who have shaped Christianity as we know it today. The spiritual giants of antiquity and modern day who have presented ideas and issues that have changed the church, the faith, and the world. To start the quarter we have Jack Watson coming to talk to us about a more recent theologian and author, C.S. Lewis.

Time and Place
We meet on Friday evenings at Royer Student Activities Center located on north campus next to Jones Graduate Tower. Come in the north doors and enter the room on the right at the top of the stairs. The Friday Night Meeting goes from 6:30 to 8:00 pm after which we go out for dinner at an inexpensive restaurant. Rides are available and all are welcome.

Upcoming Events
April 6th - Good Friday, a group of CGSAers will be meeting around the regular meeting time and heading out to a local church service. Feel free to join us.

(1) looks interesting and I will consider coming
(2) does not interest me
(3) ask me later--no time to think about this now

He will be sharing from his own life experience as he speaks to us on "Surprised by the Academy." You don't want to miss this opportunity; this will also be a good time to bring a friend to CGSA!
