Ministry Report—Lunch for the UNCA BSU

Starting college can be a lonely and frightening experiencing. It is nice to know that a ready-made group of friends is available to newbies on campus. A college freshman armed with the contact information for the Baptist Student Union on his campus will have an instant Christian community upon arrival.

Our local BSU is thriving, active and appreciative of the support given by the local churches. One of the many activities UNCA BSU sponsors is a Thursday luncheon with food provided by local Baptist Churches. TOF ladies had the opportunity to provide chili with all the trimmings for the February 12th lunch.

The two Laura’s (Dotson and Weeks) had the privilege of delivering the food and meeting the Intern, Amber Reeder, the Missions & Outreach Coordinator, Jessica Walton and the Campus Ministers, David and Christin Stone. They were impressed with the spacious house owned by the BSU and the welcome they received. Go to www.unca.edu/bsu if you would like to learn more about UNCA BSU or Google Baptist Student Union for a nationwide view of the ministry.

A big thank you goes to all of the ladies who participated by making chili and providing other items to create this hearty meal. If you want to participate in such events, call Laura Dotson at 628-1762 and discuss how you would like to be involved. We need ladies with all kinds of talents to make TOF Women’s Ministry a success.
