As mentioned at our past CU CENTRAL this upcoming CU CENTRAL (Week 6, see below for details of time and location) will be CU Giving Night.  In advance of JAW, please be praying about how you can be involved in the upcoming week.  We would love for all of us to be able to come together in prayer throughout the week.  Please consider how you can give sacrificially of your time during this busy point during term.  As a CU we also want to encourage you all to prayerfully consider giving financially towards some of the expenses that go into putting on JAW.

We will be having an opportunity for everyone to respond at the next CU CENTRAL (week 6), to sign up for prayer, various service opportunities and for people to anonymously contribute financially.  We look forward to seeing you there!
