If you missed The Edge this week, you can still join us as we slow down and get quiet...


Get away:  Find a place removed from distraction and the daily hustle and bustle to slow down and hear from God.
Once you’ve arrived, take a moment to quiet down. Focus your thoughts on your heavenly Father’s love for you and your love for Him.  Read and listen to the words of Romans 8:38-39. Don’t rush through this.  Thank Him for His love...Don’t worry about saying the right things.  Just thank him the best you know how.  Thank Him for ways He has shown his love to you.  Be specific.  If there are things that you’re struggling with, be honest with him about them and ask for His help. Tell him the kinds of things you’ve been thinking about or worrying about.  And then be still.    Ask him some questions you’ve been wondering about.   And then listen.   If you want to take a journal, you can write down any impressions you get after being quiet for a little bit.  End by taking a few minutes just to express your love for Him.

Want more information?  Stick around after the Edge on November 7th for a short informational meeting!  Hope to see you there!

CSF wants to help students transition to life in Springfield and we know that one of the MOST important things is finding a church home!    For the next 5 Sundays, CSF will be meeting at Lincoln Residence Hall at 9:30am for juice and donuts and then carpooling to a different local church.   Get your church-shopping out of the way with friends!!

The beginning of the semester is an exciting time on campus!  We want to invite you into the excitement by helping sponsor one of our first week events.  We are still in need of supplies for several of our events.  If you want to donate lemonade, popsicles, or help with funding for another item please let us know.  Thanks for your prayers and support!
