What are we doing?
We are going down to New Orleans for some awesome service projects and fellowship! We will be staying at Camp Restore: http://www.camprestore.org/. Camp Restore partners with over 60 nonprofit organizations in the area, and will provide us the opportunity to serve the people of New Orleans through construction and community projects. They offer dormitory accommodations, 3 meals a day, and project coordination while we are there. We will be at Camp Restore for 4 days - 2 days of service, and 2 days of rest and fun in New Orleans. This could include seafood, jazz, swing dancing, frisbee, shopping, or nature - so come prepared!

What is the cost?
The total cost of the trip is $240. This covers lodging at Camp Restore, food while we are in New Orleans, gas for your driver, and some activities. You will need to pay for your meals on the way to and from New Orleans.

Payment Schedule:
$50 due by this Wednesday, 2/22
$100 due 2/29
$90 due 3/14

How can I make the cost cheaper?
Fundraising: The Experts Bench has offered to do a Sales Appointment Blitz Fundraising Event. Please email Chelsea Bailey (cbailey32@gatech.edu) for further details and to sign up for a shift. If you do not need fundraising, you can also volunteer your time to raise money for others.

Scholarships: If the cost is a major issue for you, please ask about scholarships. The amount available will be determined by donations we receive and the number of individuals in need. We ask that you also participate in fund-raising if you plan on applying for a trip scholarship. Please contact Chelsea Bailey (cbailey32@gatech.edu) if you are interested.
~Freshmen will be given a $50 scholarship~

Driving: If you are interested in driving, you will get a $25 overall trip discount plus have your gas paid for. Please let us know if you would like to drive as soon as possible.

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!"

And now the tasting test.
Why is there no label on this bottle?
This is a completely safe experimental setup.

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!

Hello everyone!!!

Glad to see that everyone made it past 11.11.11!!! Not that we were really concerned but I hope you all had a great weekend!!

SPRING BREAK MEETING!! Will be this Wednesday at 7:30PM before Nav Nite. Come with your ideas! If you didn't go to the last one but still want to be involved then PLEASE GO!! It will be at the same place as last time!

Operation Christmas Child!!! I LOVE Samaritan Purse's Operation Christmas Child, because it's an opportunity to take the concept of gift-giving of the holiday seasons overseas to show children of the nations the gift of God's love. Even though it's just a shoebox of material things, I think it's part of 1 John 3:17 and Proverbs 14:31. We can pack a shoebox for a boy or girl, and the age ranges are 2-4, 5-9, and 10-14.

THINGS WE NEED:

standard size shoeboxes

$7 per box for shipping/project costs

rubber bands

wrapping paper (optional...but it makes it cute!)

gifts!!!!

gift ideas:

TOYS

small cars, balls, dolls, stuffed animals, kazoos, harmonicas, yo-yos, jump ropes, small Etch A Sketch, toys that light up or make noise (with

extra batteries), Slinky, etc.

SCHOOL SUPPLIES

pens, pencils and sharpener, crayons or markers, stamps and ink pad sets, writing pads or paper, solar calculators, coloring and picture books, etc.

HYGIENE ITEMS

toothbrush, toothpaste, mild bar soap (in a plastic bag), comb, washcloth, etc.

OTHER

hard candy and lollipops (please double bag all candy), mints, gum, T-shirts, socks, ball caps; sunglasses, hair clips, toy jewelry, watches, flashlights (with extra batteries)

A PERSONAL NOTE

In a separate envelope, you may enclose a note to the child and a photo of yourself or your family. (If you include your name and address, the child

may write back.)

NAV NITE is in Room 301 of the Student Center. This week Joshua Harkey will be speaking. He is leaving us after this semester to follow the Lord and what He is doing in India for 6 months and this will be the last time to hear him speak. Harkey was our president last year and is super awesome. So if you don't know him, shame on you because he is awesome and you should. So take this opportunity to remedy that terrible fact! :)

There will be Prayer Night at 4 PM in room 332 of the Student Center on Mondays. They will be meeting every week to intercede for our ministry, our campus, and our nation. Prayer is powerful so please come by and join in with the body of Christ.

VOLLEYBALL!! We are playing Tuesdays at 9PM in the CRC on the 4th floor. If you are playing then don't forget to be there and if you aren't then you should come cheer us on!! We are currently 1-1!! :)
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!

Everyone, please see the message below from Collen :)

Hey guys,

I don't know if you've seen anything on the news or not, but a soldier I went to church with was killed in Afghanistan on Thursday. It's a tough time for his family and his friends, and I was just going to ask if ya'll could be praying for them. Our local paper wrote an article about it that is better than anything I could <http://www.facebook.com/CHNV1>.

Hope you're all enjoying your last few days of the break and well rested. Thanks in advance for the prayers.

Hello everyone!!!

Hope you had a great weekend!!! Jackets are 4-0 so I know that makes me a happy camper :)

We will not be having Nav Nite this week. It is one of the weeks that we couldn't get a room reserved in the Student Center. So we have decided that this week is Interministry Week. What that means is that if you know that some of the other ministries are meeting this week, go as an ambassador of not only Christ but of Navs as well. Find out what is going on in those ministries so that we can be praying for them and to be encouraged by the way the Spirit is working all over campus.

Also Grace Midtown is having their Live CD recording on Wednesday at 7:30. Doors open at 7. I encourage you to go and be apart of this wonderful time of worship! Get their early though because it is sure to be packed!

Fall Conference!!! is this weekend and is gonna be awesome! Fran Sciacca is throwin down the gospel this weekend and it will be tons of fun. Please if you have signed up fill out the Travel document so that I can organize rides for everyone. Since we do not have Nav Nite this week, give it to Chelsea Bailey if you see her, or give it to me and we will get it all taken care of.

If you are not in a BIBLE STUDY but would like to be, please email Nathan Evans at nevans3@gatech.edu or Chelsea Bailey atchelseabailey15@gmail.com

You are not being sent to a people of obscure speech and difficult language,

but to the house of Israel-- not to many peoples of obscure speech

and difficult language, whose words you cannot understand.

Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you.

Ezekiel 3:5-6

Let's go out and share with the people around us and not wait for a mission trip. Our campus is our mission!

[GT Navs] GT Week of Prayer 2011

2011-08-09T19:30:00.001-07:00

Just wanted to make sure everyone got this... Thanks to Benjamin for posting this in the GT Navs Facebook group.

Someone from GT Crossroads is organizing a week of prayer (first week of the Fall semester)- same thing as last year, if you participated. You can sign up for one or more 15 minute time slots here, and it's then your responsibility and privilege to pray at that time each day of that week. Make sense?

The link for the Facebook event is here. Below is the info provided there:

Hey everyone,

This is an invitation to pray a certain time everyday for at least 15 minutes next week (8/14-8/20) for Georgia Tech, our ministry, and Atlanta in general. God has laid on my heart this desire for prayer - for corporate, powerful prayer - before we get into our hectic lives at Tech.

This is a brief vision: "First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people...This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth." 1 Timothy 2:1-4

We want to come together and ask that this year at Tech people would find new life in Jesus and that those who already know him would walk in unity, radical obedience, and love. Before the fall semester starts, we want to start praying for our campus together!

***Please RSVP by Friday the 12th!***
Here's the GoogleDoc so you can sign up for a time: https://spreadsheets2.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmKInacRd5VAdGZCNFcyaW1wSkFoc0VjSXUzeVRmZ0E&hl=en_US#gid=0

Just put your name beside the time slot that works best for you to pray every day during that week. (For instance, I would put my name by "10:30-10:45AM" if I wanted to pray from 10:30 to 10:45 in the morning every day of that week.) Thanks a lot! And feel free to invite anyone to this event who's interested in making Jesus famous on our campus. :)

Paige,

Can you send out an email about a football block for the 2011 Georgia Tech football season? We only have to have 15 people to make a block in the North Endzone. I'd like to gauge interest. We have until next Friday (Aug 5) to make the block.

Thanks,

Andrew Moore

[GT Navs] Newsletter

2011-07-13T13:18:00.000-07:00

Navs,

Sorry! I just discovered that many of you never got the Newsletter, which was sent back in May. It seems that the gatech site that manages our email list has a limit on attachment sizes... And 5 MB is apparently too big :(

For now, you can get it here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24493597/Spring2011Newsletter.pdf

Hopefully we'll figure something out by next time. In any case, you'll get one guaranteed if you put your name on the mailing list here: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dGpHaC04dFhBak5vSTREaFFOWDhRVkE6MQ#gid=0

We're proud of it, so hope you enjoy... and sorry you're getting it so late!

[GT Navs] House Dinner- tomorrow (Thursday)

2011-05-04T16:52:00.000-07:00

A message from Jason:

Hey everyone!

Last I checked, God is still super awesome, and loves you every day with a thunderous love - even on our low days. He is the one who is able to do more than we can ask or imagine. He is constant and faithful, and it is my hope that we will grow to be more confident in his solid promises and learn to walk by faith.

In other good news - I will graduate this semester with a masters degree. I walk on Sunday if you want to come! I have a request pending on God's divine table for what the next step is, but he hasn't told me yet for sure. That is to say, things are up in the air.

This is last minute, but the plan is to fix a bunch of scrumptious food on THURSDAY EVENING- May 5th - probably ready at 7pm. The menu will most likely be meat spaghetti, with salad and french bread, etc. Please let me know if you want to come - so I can prepare accordingly. I hope to see you. As always, I appreciate any volunteers for desserts and sides and drinks.

Also, my sister Kristina, and brother Joshua will be in town, so this is a good opportunity to meet them. Three Okermans in one place can't be a bad thing.

Blessings.
Jason

[GT Navs] 40 days of water

2011-05-03T22:15:00.000-07:00

A message from Nathan:

Sorry guys but I have forgotten to take your money from you for the 40 Days of Water (and wouldn't have remembered if not for Kayla), so here is the plan. You can give me money sometime this week before you leave and I will make a payment or you can give on your own. The organization we are giving to is Blood Water Mission and you can give by credit card online. If you do give on your own, if you don't mind send me an email telling me the amount you gave. It's not a competition or anything but it would be cool to know how much Navs and friends gave as a whole.

Sorry for dropping the ball on this. And remember to continue to pray over clean water. Our money can go a long way, but we pray to a God who is able to do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine.

Have an awesome summer. Love you guys

Hey everyone!

The year is winding up, but be sure to catch some of these last announcements!

We're putting together a Newsletter to let parents and other outsiders know what's going on in GT Navs (and things to pray for). If you have parents, relatives, or friends who might be interested in receiving our newsletter, go to this link and add their contact info: https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&formkey=dGpHaC04dFhBak5vSTREaFFOWDhRVkE6MQ#gid=0

NavNite will be this Thursday at 8pm in Student Center Room 343. Come out for this month's prayer & worship night!

If you're interested in using your creativity to serve others and glorify God, contact Paige (pbrannon@gatech.edu).

If you want to get plugged in to a Bible study this semester, please contact Josh Harkey at harkey@gatech.edu!

"Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law. The commandments, "Do not commit adultery," "Do not murder," "Do not steal," "Do not covet," and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this one rule: "Love your neighbor as yourself." Love does no harm to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law." -Romans 13:8-10

Have a great Dead Week!

Hey everyone!

Hope you had a great time at the Mocktail Party on Friday. It was great to see everyone all dressed up!

3000/13 concludes this Thursday! Remember, the task is 3000 pushups for men/ crunches for ladies, and memorizing Philippians 2:1-13 by this Thursday (4/14). Be sure to get your verses checked off with a Bible study leader by then! Keep up the good work!

NavNight is this Thursday 8-10pm in Student Center Room 343. Be there or be square :-)

If you're interested in using your creativity to serve others and glorify God, contact Paige (pbrannon@gatech.edu).

^"Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe" -Philippians 2:14-15

It's amazing how much we complain without even realizing it. Think of the huge difference it makes being around someone else who doesn't complain. Let's strive to be non-complainers....and shine like stars in the universe. :-)

Have an excellent week!
