Hello Everyone!

It was really great to see you all at Nav Nite last week!!! Hope you all have been meditating on the Word this week and really striving to hide it in your hearts. 


Nav Nite is in the WCF building. Nav Nite starts at 8 PM so get there earlier than this if you want to socialize :) This is another ministry's building and we are borrowing their basement for this week. We just want to check it out and see how it goes. Please give feedback at the end of the night about which location you like better. The Ford building or meeting in the WCF building. Also this building in across from MPH and it on Techwood Dr. near the football stadium. Let me know if you need better directions! Can't wait to see you there!

Spring Break!!! We are going to New Orleans and it will be amazing! The trip dates are potentially March 17th-23rd and the cost will be between $200-$300. We are still working out the details for the exact cost. There will be fundraising opportunities and we hope you will join us. This trip will be SERVICE oriented and we will have a great time bringing the Kingdom for God in New Orleans. Contact Casey Jordan at cjordan31@gatech.edu if you have any other questions.  

There will also be a planning meeting for anyone interested in helping to plan the trip! It will be THIS WEDNESDAY at 7PM in the CULC on the wooden stairs. It is a great thing to learn how to plan a huge event and Casey would love to have you help him :)

Smokey Mountain Summer is a summer training program (STP) that is in Pigeon Forge, TN and is a summer than you can dedicate to God in order to grow, mature and develop your relationship with God and your love for His people. You can find out more about this program by talking to myself, Casey Jordan, Scott Berninghaus, Alexa Corbit, or Kayla Nightingale, who were all there this past summer. There are also other people who are involved in Navigators who have gone to other locations or previous summers. The link to find out more is: http://www.navigators.org/us/ministries/college/stp/collegiate-stp/smoky-mountain-summer   The applications are due by February 19th so please be praying about how God will use your summer! 

Donny is our compassion child that we as Navigators have decided to sponsor. He is a wonderful child who we will help better his life. At Nav Nite there will be a board that has his letters, and more information. We recently received a new letter from Donny. If you would like to help support him, we pay compassion $32 every month. If you could bring just a couple of dollars to Nav Nite, there are enough of us to support him. Please help us support him!  



Funny Joke in General :)

A man dies and goes to heaven. St. Peter meets him at the pearly gates. 

St. Peter says, "Here's how it works. You need 100 points to make it into heaven. You tell me all the good things you've done, and I give you a certain number of points for each item, depending on how good it was. When you reach 100 points, you get in."

"Okay" the man says, "I attended church every Sunday"
That's good, says St. Peter, "that's worth two points."

"Two points?" he says. "Well, I gave 10% of all my earning to the church."
"Well, let's see," answers Peter, "that's worth another 2 points. Did you do anything else?"

"Two points? Golly. How about this: I started a soup kitchen in my city and worked in a shelter for homeless veterans."
"Fantastic, that's certainly worth a point," he says.

"hmmm...," the man says, " I was married to the same woman for 50 years and never cheated on her, even in my heart."
"That's wonderful," says St. Peter, "that's worth three points!"

"THREE POINTS!!" the man cries, "At this rate the only way I get into heaven is by the grace of God!"

"COME ON IN!"

Hello Everyone!

It was really great to see you all at Nav Nite last week! It was so great to hear just the mission for this semester and a reminder of the things that we should be striving to see in our lives. I love the image of the fruit of the Spirit and how if we are abiding in Jesus then we will bear good fruit.

Chemistry Joke :)

The Last words of a chemist:
  1. First the acid, then the water...
  2. And now the tasting test.
  3. Why is there no label on this bottle?
  4. This is a completely safe experimental setup.
I just thought these were funny. Also I'm starting to find it more difficult to find jokes that other people might find funny. So if you have any ideas, let me know :)

[GT Navs] SMS information

Hey everyone!

I was misleading in my previous email. For the Smokey Mountain Summer STP, the following link will take you to where the application is. The dates for the program are June 1 - July 30, 2012 in Pigeon Forge, TN. The website has a ton of information for you and your parents. 

The deadline for Team Member applications is February 25 but the Team Leader due date is February 1st so please pay attention to those dates!

I hope you will all be praying about this summer! Sorry for giving the wrong information earlier! Also please give your recommendation forms to your bible study leader since we do not have a campus minister who can write them!
