Before all the formal festivities of Thanksgiving begin, the Baptist Student Union will do a little celebrating of their own.
On November 25, the day before Thanksgiving, the BSU will hold a luncheon at 11 a.m.
“There will be a guest speaker, music, and lots of food,” Rocky Burrows, director of the BSU, said. “We just want to provide an atmosphere of Thanksgiving on campus for students. We thought the students might enjoy spending time with friends.”
Other meetings scheduled by the BSU are weekly. There will be a light Bible study on Mondays at 1 p.m. On Tuesdays, there will be a prayer time meeting at 11 a.m. and on Wednesdays there will be a Bible study at 11 a.m. These meetings take place in room 103 of the Humanities Building.
“The meetings have been really good. We just hope more people will get involved in the future,” Burrows said.
Although the scheduling of events may not accommodate everyone’s life, the BSU is available for counseling and help.
“We know it is hard for some people because of scheduling. Even though some students cannot attend the meetings, we want them to know we’re still here for them,” Burrows said.
