Some students from Tulane University in New Orleans came up to visit AU and help us out with Passion Week. The small group is made up of Chi Alpha students, which is a national Christian college ministry. We have a chapter here at American, so they came up to help us out with our events this week.
I had never really heard of Passion Week before I came to AU, but the idea of it seems really cool. All the Christian organizations (Catholics, Methodists, The Gathering, Chi Alpha, One Accord, etc) come together to plan a week of activities before Easter.
This week, we showed a movie last night called "Amazing Grace" (if you haven't seen it, it's amazing), and tonight there is a discussion about the Origins of Easter. On Thursday they're having a "Last Supper" and Open Air worship. And on Good Friday there will be a prayer event called Oasis. So if you're interested in getting involved in a Christian organization on campus, there is plenty of community here at AU.
