Looking forward to our "Temple Tours"

I am so excited about the events we have scheduled for our minimester term. It is going to be some amazing experiences -- some that I believe you will not forget any time soon (at least that is my hope and prayer).

Our schedule (at this point) is:
Monday -- Christian (We will tour/discuss both Protestant and Catholic faiths)
Tuesday -- Jewish Synagogue
Wednesday -- Zen Center (Buddhist Temple/Meditation Service)
Thursday -- The Church of the Latter Day Saints (Mormons)
Friday -- Islamic Mosque and Worship Service

We will have a time of discussion with leaders from the different World Religions as well as observe some of their worship services and places of worship (Temples).

Please remember that we will be in Senior Dress Code for the week. We want to show respect to each World Religion as we visit the house of worship/temple. See the handout previously given for clarification. If you have any questions, please email me at lwelch@southwestchristian.org.

Don't forget that you will need a digital camera for the week. This will be to log our activites (on the computers at school). You will also need money for lunch. We will be eating off campus while we are out for our tour each day. We will stop at local food chains (fast food of your choice -- example: Rosa's, Chick-Fil-A, Pei Wei, etc).

Have a great Spring Break -- and I will see you at 8:00 a.m. on Monday morning -- March 23rd in Room 210.
