We need to nail down the volunteers for Sat. Feb. 25 empty bowls.  Remember PSF will purchase tickets for volunteers and if possible volunteers can offer a small donation to PSF to offset costs.  A ticket makes sure you get your own ceramic bowl and soup!  We are planning on volunteering at the time listed below.  Click here for Empty Bowls information.  

Empty Bowls Volunteering, Saturday, February 25 from, 12:15-2:30 pm (come for lunch beforehand)

Welcome Back

Welcome to the Spring 2012 semester!!  Hope you had a great break.  Several of us traveled with a group from the Marshall Presbyterian Campus Ministry to the College Conference at Montreat last week.  It was amazing.  We are already looking forward to the 2013 Conference January 2 - 5!!!

We will start meeting this Wednesday, January 9 at 7 pm at the Campus Ministry Center/map in sidebar.  As always, dinner is free and starts at 7 pm, the program begins shortly after 7:30 pm.  Our opening program is -- worship and communion.  All are welcome.  Next week we will worship again and have some fun catching up and getting know each other. . . Hope to see you there.  It is never too late to join.

Winter Break

Do you want to start 2012 off on the right foot and get out of the house over winter break?  Then join the PSF at the 2012 Montreat College Conference.  Every January, students from WVU and Marshall join hundreds of other college students in Montreat, NC at a conference that features exciting worship, great keynotes, times to hang out, and awesome workshops. 

It is a great chance to meet college students from all over the country and to get grounded in your faith as you start another year.  The conference is January 2—5, 2012.  We will leave from Morgantown, WV and Charleston, WV in the morning on Monday, January 2 and return late on January 5. 

Money will be due Wed. Nov. 30. Checks payable to the Campus Ministry Committee. The cost for students is $50 which covers transportation, housing, meals at the conference.  You are responsible for the cost of a t-shirt (if you choose) and additional meals on the way up and back. 

Spring Break

The Presbyterian Student Fellowship will be travelling to New Orleans March 24—31, 2012 for a spring break mission trip.  We will work with the St. Bernard Project in New Orleans that is helping to rebuild after Hurricane Katrina. 

We will attend worship on Sunday at a local congregation with former members of the PSF @ WVU. 

We will fly out of Pittsburgh, PA on Saturday, March 24 and return to Pittsburgh, PA on Saturday March 31.  The cost of the trip will not exceed $250 for students.  A deposit of $200 will be required by Wednesday, November 30 payable to the Campus Ministry Committee.

Students will be responsible for some additional costs on the trip such as meals out on Sunday and meals in transit. 

Where you can find a daily scripture reading

Did you know there is a list of scriptures to read for each day (morning and evening), and a different set assigned for each Sunday as suggestions for pastors?  Sort of like the Bible curriculum for the church.  If you are looking for a way to start reading the Bible every day here is a link to the Devotions of the PC(USA): http://gamc.pcusa.org/ministries/devotions/.  On the side bar is the link to daily lectionary readings.  If you scroll down there is a way to have the daily readings sent to you via email!  We will begin a habit at PSF of reading one of the daily readings each Wednesday night.
