We wanted to let you know that there will be a memorial service held tomorrow, November 12th, for families affected by miscarriage. All are welcome to attend.

International Students, the World Missions Center is having a stop-by event so that you can browse some books that may be of interest to you! Books include missionary methods, sermon writing, small group materials, and much more! Even if you are not interested in the books, please stop by. They will have coffee and light refreshments for students to enjoy while looking through the books and just being able to gather for a little while. They will be gathering in the World Missions Center, Mathena 108!

International ladies, remember that the Sip & See event is going on at the Women's Center tomorrow from 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM. Feel free to stop by and pick up some free maternity clothing! International ladies will have first choice.

GIVEAWAY: The cooler temperatures this past week, combined with the forecast of upper 30s this weekend, indicate that it does, in fact, get at least slightly cold in Texas. Who knew? Of course, northerners wouldn’t classify such temperatures as “cold,” but we Texans are grateful for anything lower than the 90s during the month of October. So in order to ensure that none of you suffer during this not-quite-freezing-but-at-least-slightly-cool weather, we are giving away a free Scarborough sweatshirt to ONE winner.

Hello international community at Southwestern. A new semester has started and my prayer is that the Lord will bless you during this fall semester. I hope you enjoy your classes and the fellowship with students from all over the world. Please make sure to welcome all the new international students and make them feel at home. I also wanted to remind you that this page is for all of us as international students to ask questions about life in the US, to request help for moving, getting rides, where to buy things, etc. Please feel free to post and encourage one another.

Therefore, encourage one another and build up one another, just as you also are doing. 1 Ts 5:11

GIVEAWAY: We’ve had a mild summer so far, but the forecast shows 90s across the board for the weeks ahead, and you can bet that 100-degree temps are just around the corner. There is no fun like a water park on a hot summer day, so we are giving away 4 tickets to Splash Kingdom Waterpark. These can be used any day in the 2017 season and at any of the following Texas or Louisianna locations: Canton, Shreveport, Weatherford, Greenville, and Nacogdoches.

GIVEAWAY: Learn the mechanics of text-driven preaching with David Lewis Allen, dean of Southwestern Seminary’s School of Preaching, at the pre-conference of the SBC Pastor’s Conference next month. To prepare you for the workshop and to kickstart your summer reading, we’re giving away a stack of text-driven preaching books written by Southwestern faculty and alumni that every current or future minister needs to have in his library.
