It was exciting to see us come together to engage the campus through conversations, chain gangs, and proxe stations to raise awareness about modern day slavery and God's mission to restore the earth in full shalom.<br /><br />At Love Out Loud, our Friday night event,we got to see <strong><em>at least</em> 222</strong> people attend - that's one of the biggest IV events we've had on this campus! God worked through the performers, the speakers were informative and challenging, and the gospel was proclaimed. <br /><br />We're sure that YOU have tons of stories to share! <strong>Leave comment below</strong> to tell us about the conversations you've had, the people you've encountered, the things you've witnessed, or the ways God has changed you through this eye-opening experience.<br /><br />And enjoy just a few snapshots and videos of the events below!<br /><br /><br /><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px;

We appreciate you bearing with us as we don't usually meet @ 9:30pm on a Thursday.<br /><br />It was our first time holding a Pillow Fight as our GIM After Large Group Activity (ALGA), and it was a complete success! We held the battle in the Peace Quad, first splitting up into four teams to play a game where the teams had to protect their kings/queens (which was E-board minus Winnie) and then later on had a free-for-all melee, where we all had to die a dramatic death.<br /><br />Most people compared the battles to the movie "300" and used words like "epic" to describe the fight.<br /><br />Here are some pictures from the event:<br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJFrE90s24aKbPHO2edoYktwQqSfS2Nb-6lV7gUyq6qbSCEfqDi06tDcxYl7DZFgsl-he-sRzMLX_81TT94WRoVco-fHPDJQ98iRcDyL-iOQslnjhhmWvOzzKBP3p-nqN0PyULAZim5M8/s1600/IMG_0313.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 320px;

I gave a lame answer, saying that we were a student group on campus that was on a mission to change the world. What does that even <em>mean</em>?<br /><br />When I thought about it later, I thought about how much God was so relevant in my life, in our generation, and in our world today. I thought about how InterVarsity means to me and how much I've learned that there a big plan that God has that goes way beyond me, but still God invites me to be a part of it, and how He has empowered me to come alongside of Him. And I thought about how so good that is that there's just no way we could keep it to ourselves. God's inviting me, He's inviting you, and He's inviting the people of this community to strive for the world that God had intended.<br /><br />And then I thought...why couldn't I just say that when I was asked??<br /><br />When I was walking home from running errands today there was a girl with a t-shirt that said, "A goal with a plan is just a wish" on the back. How true is that?<br /><br />Brothers and sisters, God has a big goal and a big plan, and InterVarsity is here to help carry that out, to be the answers to the very prayers so many are praying for.<br /><br />Take a few minutes to just think about what drew you to InterVarsity in the first place, and share that with the new friends we make tonight.<br /><br />See you at the<strong> pillow fight in the peace quad</strong>!<br /><br />*TammyBU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-14439722436863869842010-03-22T21:01:00.000-07:002010-03-22T21:11:57.554-07:00God blows my mind. (Winnie Lee)Karen Ching, our prayer coordinator once said, “God is so distracting.”<br />This statement is so true.<br />When she is distracted with her love for prayer, I can’t stop sharing God’s love. But I only got to this point because He’s been doing some major surgery on my heart.<br /><br />I really felt like I wasted last semester: I let myself get comfortable. I put God in a box.<br /><br />But, coming into this semester after Urbana, I was renewed and changed. I am amazed at His love for us. Not just for me, but for EVERYONE! I was slapped in the face when God revealed His heart for Binghamton University. It might seem bold or unrealistic, but I am 100% convinced that God will revive our campus and I knew I had to do my small part.<br /><br />So coming back on campus, I realized how much God wanted my suitemates to draw closer to Him. I am developing great and long lasting relationships with them. Not only that, but I started a PIG (Person Investigating God) and have had some of the most wonderful conversations with these individuals.<br /><br />It has been so encouraging to see people in our fellowship stripping away their selfishness and following Jesus even when it’s uncomfortable. God has been so prevalent in the relationships around me. For example, I will be living with two of Sarah Dill’s current suitemates next semester. The crazy thing is, I had no idea! I am so excited to see God’s fingerprints all over the place.<br /><br />Something that I have been convicted by is how God blesses obedience.<br /><br />There was a big turnaround from last semester to this semester, and I am having the time of my life. So I encourage y’all, to <strong>be bold</strong>! God bless. Try it out - what do you have to lose? I thought I would lose my comfort...instead, God gave me PWESENTS!BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-69960993589632425572010-02-26T10:55:00.000-08:002010-02-26T11:51:47.942-08:00Prepare for Awesomeness. (Priscilla)<em>Prepare for awesomeness</em>.<br /><br />That’s the tagline for Kung Fu Panda (the movie). I mention this because I have just finished watching it on this cozy snow day. Po, the protagonist panda, also says, “There’s no charge for awesomeness," but I beg to differ. The awesomeness that we are preparing for is Jesus, the One who is coming again, but there is a charge. It’s not a monetary charge, but a charge of our lives.<br /><br />This week in Newing Small Group (WOOT WOOT), we studied Luke 9:57-62, The Cost of Following Jesus (sorry if this is a spoiler for you if you haven’t studied this in small group yet). In the passage, there is no explicit list of what we need to give up or take up to follow Him. But as we dig deeper into the passage, we see that there are things that we must be willing to leave behind. There are things we must change to live a life that is following Jesus. A man tells Jesus, “I will follow you wherever you go." Jesus’ response is, “Foxes have holes and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to rest His head." As willing as the man may have been to follow Jesus, Jesus reminds him that to follow Him, he will have to risk the possibility of having no place to stay. This may sound odd, because nowadays, we have motels, hotels, inns, etc. available everywhere, including places where we go to do the Lord’s work. But if we dig deeper, we see it is really Jesus telling us that the cost is much more than just a home, it’s everything. To the man who wants to bury his father, Jesus replies, “let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God”. And to the man who wants to first say good-bye to his family, Jesus answers, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God”. If we want to follow Jesus, we need to leave everything else behind and follow Him right now.<br /><br />Our journey with Jesus begins <u>right now</u>.<br /><br />This journey isn’t an easy one. It began with a sacrifice that Jesus made and now it requires sacrifice from us. It may be something big, something small, something long term, something short term, something cultural, or something that we have grown to love.<br /><br />Sacrifice isn’t really sacrifice unless we do it with a humble and willing heart though.<br /><br />Jesus doesn’t want us to be walking besides Him, grumbling the entire way about how we had to do this or give up that. He wants us to be joyful, because although we gave up something here on this earth, His glory here on earth trumps our desires and we are also expectantly looking towards the day where we will be with Him forever and ever (and if you ask me that will be pretty sweet).<br /><br />If you have told Jesus that you are going to follow Him wherever He will go, how have you been following Him? Are you still holding on to things that are slowing you down, that are keeping you from walking with Jesus at a full pace? Have you been grumbling about how much you have had to give up or what you have had to do? Is He asking you to give something up for the kingdom of God? Do you need to re-evaluate where you have been walking?<br /><br />Whatever it is, don’t wait.<br /><br />Jesus, His Awesomeness, is coming.<br />He wants us, every part of us, so give your life over to Him.<br />As we prepare for Him to return, He is preparing for us a home in His kingdom for eternity.BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-39948386568608198552010-02-21T11:41:00.001-08:002010-02-21T11:41:26.096-08:00Small Groups, Community, KoinoniaHello everyone!<div><div><br /></div><div>This Saturday, I had the pleasure of being asked to speak at KCF (Korean Christian Fellowship) on the topic of small groups. It was really exciting for me to prepare an expositional talk on the fellowship described at the end of Acts 2.

(Tammy)Someone from our fellowship asked me online the other day if I was going to Basileia, the upcoming InterVarsity conference in the summer.<br /><br />I told him that I believed Basileia was a foundational means of how God has opened my heart and my eyes throughout my time here at Binghamton thus far. Ever since going to Basileia my freshman year, I've been a big fan of IVCF conferences...in fact, I get really excited anticipating their arrivals, and I get more excited when I leave them.<br /><br />What other kind of conferences or retreats do you attend that you leave being more excited than before or during your actual experience?<br /><br />Usually we get disappointed when the end of those kinds of trips comes because you want to stay in that place of solitude, peace, comfort and fun. But that's not where the growth happens.<br /><br />Growth happens when you walk down from that mountaintop into the dark valley following God's direction to climb up the next mountain, when you're challenged to move from your temptation to remain complacent, stagnant, and satisfied.<br /><br />Conferences and retreats like Basileia, Urbana, and Expedition help prepare us with the right tools for the inevitable valleys and the mountain climbs that we will face on our journeys with Him. They also create an opportunity where God can open our blind eyes to see what He sees and calls us to then "Get up, take your mat, and walk," right now. These conferences help us see...here's where we're going and here's how we can get there, so what is your next step?<br /><br />I enjoy attending conferences like Basileia for a number of reasons:<br /><ul><li><strong>I get to see that our mission as InterVarsity is not limited to our campus.</strong> Visually experiencing how other students from other campuses are empowered by God to carry out the same mission in a different university is something you cannot be told but must see for yourself. We are not alone in the great commission.</li><li><strong>I am equipped with seeds of ideas, tools for efficacy, and motivation to go</strong> out and learn what part God has designed just for me in His bigger plan not by sitting and listening, but by practicing and doing.</li><li><strong>I have the privilege to see God at work in others' lives</strong>, especially those within our own chapter, as we may walk on different paths but strive to move together in the same direction.</li><li><strong>It's fun, relaxing, and peaceful</strong>. You can meet new people from other schools, and you bond with people from our own chapter in a way you've never done before. There are fun things to do, and the Saranac Village campground is just a beautiful place to enjoy God's blessings of creation and rest.</li></ul><p>Others who have participated may have other reasons - don't be afraid to ask them.</p><p>But I'm not telling you these things to hype it up, nag you to go, or make you feel guilty if you decide not to. I and many others who have gone before want to invite you to experience God moving through you the way we've seen God move through our own lives. We don't want to keep the goodness to ourselves - we want to share it with you.</p><p>It's not too early to think about it. There are lots of other schools that are registering, so there are limited spaces, especially with the Work Crew track that gives you a $200 if you stay an extra five days.</p><p>So I invite you to pray about it, ask questions (leave a comment), <a href="http://www.ivcfnynj.org/basileia.asp">read</a> about it, start setting aside funds for it, and/or <a href="http://www.ivcfnynj.org/basileia_registration.asp">register</a> today (Week 1: May 15th-20th). </p><p>We would love to see you there. I can't wait to see how God will meet you where you are and walk alongside you in this journey you have with Him.</p>BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-70340098739168884062010-02-10T17:59:00.000-08:002010-02-13T22:38:42.375-08:00Following Florence<strong> <div><i><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal" class="Apple-style-span">Florence Luong is an alumna of InterVarsity Binghamton.

This whole week has been busy for me with teaching, celebrating Christmas with teachers, celebrating Christmas with team, and even attending a Christmas Eve service at His house with Chinese believers. It's been tiring, but so full of love and goodness.<br /><br />Teaching the real reason for this season in my classroom was a blessing. It was so empowering just even saying the Son's name in the classroom. Teaching my students also meant opportunities for my co-teachers to hear the story, because they were translating. My teamleader reminded me how lucky I was to be able to freely share that part of my life with them this week.<br /><br />Three students came to my apartment to celebrate Christmas with me. Two of them are in my class. One of them actually asked me in class if he could come to my apartment with his friends at 9:00 pm. It was really cute haha. They came at the same time that we were having a Christmas party with our co-teachers. It was really fun not having to be their English teacher and just playing with them<br /><br />As for the Christmas party with the teachers, it was a pretty good turnout =) We also had 2 other foreign teachers come to our party. I was really glad that my co-teacher, Max, was able to make it. During class this week, I had my worldless word book with me, and I asked him about it. He told me that he had read parts of it before, but felt intimidated by it. I hope that as the year goes on, his perception changes and there will be encouragement for him to read it again.<br /><br />Celebrating Christmas in China wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. My team and I celebrated by doing secret santa, eating breakfast together, unwrapping presents, and caroling. All the days leading up to Christmas, my secret santa left jokes for me in my office and apartment =) Here's my favorite one:<br />Why does Santa Claus like to work in his garden?<br />Because he likes to hoe, hoe, hoe! :)<br /><br />Overall, this week has been good. Tiring, but good. I hope you all had a great Christmas and are relaxing this weekend. Enjoy the rest of the holiday season :)<br /><br />Peace and Joy,<br />Florence<br /><br />P.S. I made collages of my Christmas celebration. One is with students and the other is with teachers & team.

I just finished my first semester at SMBS (Shanxi Modern Bilingual School)... which means I'm officially on vacation! My team and I are leaving for Thailand tomorrow morning at 9 AM (Friday at 8 pm in America) for ELIC's annual conference. During this time, ELIC's staff will be seeking for next year's plans. My teammates and I are nervous about what will be revealed to us. Please rap that we would be reminded that His plans for us are not just for His glory, but also have our best interests at heart.

I believe that this semesters going to be a really big one-- God is moving on our campus and I cannot wait to see what fruit we will see.</div><div><br /></div><div>This past weekend, the Executive Board, Ministry Heads, and some Small Group Leaders got to attend Leaders Days, a weekend retreat for the leadership of chapters of InterVarsity in Eastern New York. We met together and prayed, worshiped, and planned. It was an awesome time, not just because we had fun together, but we caught a glimpse of the magnitude of God's mission-- extending far past the boundaries of Binghamton, NY.</div><div><br /></div><div>I am proud to be a part of such a strong leadership team. I know my brothers and sisters have been chosen by God to bring our fellowship into a deeper level of commitment to our Vision of Transform, Renew, Change. We wait in eager expectation of the manifestation of God's power and glory, conscious of the work He is already doing through us.</div><div><br /></div><div><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 125px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 175px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431268942638076946" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYsHfmTnU13zC1eFysXMoDEjbHwCgRLB4EKfoi8dt-PovGMiqYHPVHok84mtx79Du3GvbbSK6eB8BWIuIn72tmuIri1XvLhJCeeAYAxEckz1PyTGZvJOWd3y2pQS7i5kbxt10DVunHYso/s320/tammyblog.jpg" /></div><div>I thought it'd be a good idea to introduce some more of the Leadership Team because they are some great people, whom I love. The first is our Administrator/Vice President, <b>Tamaria Chan</b>. Tammy has worked tirelessly for the past year, making sure that logistically, InterVarsity is running like a well-oiled machine. She brings a new meaning to the phrase "detail-oriented." It has been a pleasure serving with Tammy for the past year because I know that she is conscious of where her heart is, and is not satisfied until she is giving her 100%. Her dedication to our fellowship has been invaluable, and I look forward to the way she will bless us in this coming year. She is also a really good friend of mine, and I can attest to her beauty as a person (inside and out :D) and desire to serve God with her gifts.</div><div><br /></div><div><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 125px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 175px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431271490363867602" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtOEchvnBX4u_H22KD2rmKtMoXWglmbnT-Ra8CMbK2l8QxMrkVT1tGQfZAnennAaqnFmbK2Y1YEf_qaJ5Lsr6hhRWgYgKdbdNbezCQj1LQtHxZ6pN26CNvcaVESAbWuZeXRpV5FUbLvrs/s320/jonnyblog.jpg" /></div><div><b>Jonny Hui</b> is a sophomore Engineering major serving as our Large Group Coordinator. I first began serving with Jonny on Large Group committee last semester and I was greatly impressed by the effort he put in to the little things. If you wonder why the door to Lecture Hall 14 doesn't slam anymore, it's because of him. It'd be easy to say that those sorts of things don't really matter, but what I see in that little act is something that I believe will translate into how Jonny runs the ministry: He strives for excellence, putting together many little, thought-over pieces to make something big and beautiful. It's been a real treat to watch Jonny grow into his position, and it'll be an even bigger treat to enjoy the large groups he coordinates.</div><div><br /></div><div><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 125px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 175px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431273505027435778" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwUu6mL9b29uXo0KovVPJM-BfSPVYuKvVCCBBqTnwfU6n8ian9zLVSC44kQroLKjts3bI2FodJr5Z374Jx2qcMBMaELScXEFCViyBP-sY7xM5NcRT4C59MLsbUeWkHE-bDdvbWlr-LlWA/s320/priscillablog.jpg" /></div><div>Our Small Group Coordinator (or my replacement) is <b>Priscilla Lin</b>. Priscilla is a sophomore Chemistry major (I know- weird, right?) who has been dedicated to the small group ministry since she came to Binghamton. It was a true joy to work with her when we led the Dickinson small groups together in Spring 2009, as I was able to observe her evolution from small group member to small group leader and a tremendous growth in her desire to serve her peers. Priscilla is passionate about the transformative power of small groups on an individual, communal, and systemic level. She is also committed to caring for her small group leaders, so they in turn can care for their small group members. Expect great things from this girl.</div><div><br /></div><div><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 125px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 175px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431277021009859874" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDalz1gvE0034xJIhwM1WO9WIdMDLP64bhUI10E2V23oAM6eFDpgiqqBB3Yoo9hegTjxNBQG5tgvjRG9T1fl7g84i9Sf7x39GLxL6abn7mo8OLovtfdI60r_PHvyJIEH5Hr4JZsE5LnOQ/s320/winnieblog.jpg" /></div><div><b>Winnie Lee </b>is our Outreach Coordinator. If I had to describe Winnie's passion and intensity on a scale from 1-10, I'd pick a 14.5. Winnie has blown me away in the few meetings we've had so far in the way that her heart breaks for the campus. Winnie has a very clear agenda: To get the 130 members of our fellowship to reach out to the 14,000 people on this campus. Sound a little lofty? I'd think so, but Winnie and I both know that we serve a God who is capable of doing that ten times over. Winnie's affinity in evangelism and living missionally has grown exponentially since I met her in Fall 2008 when I gave freshman-Winnie a tour of the campus. I know that leading with Winnie will be exciting and energizing, and I believe that Winnie will be a powerhouse in reminding all of us about why we do what we do.</div><div><br /></div><div>Remember, our GIM is this <b>Friday, January 29th</b>, at <b>7:30pm</b> in <b>Lecture Hall 14</b>!</div>BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-6960961852614351202010-01-25T07:35:00.000-08:002010-02-09T07:40:57.552-08:00Administration<strong>Tammy's Office Hours (UU-314)</strong><br /><br />MWF = 1:00pm-2:00pm<br />T = 10:00am-11:00am<br />R = 3:00pm-4:00pm<br /><br /><strong>Important Links:</strong><br /><ul><li><a href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&formkey=dE50djVoVEhLSjVWSE5JaFJTdm9MZ3c6MA">InterVarsity Purchase Request Form Spring 2010</a></li></ul>BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-15947358401019938652010-01-25T07:20:00.000-08:002010-03-15T18:16:59.035-07:00Binghamton University IVCF Ministry Leaders 2010President: Matthew Tuttle<br />(<a href="mailto:matthew.j.tuttle@gmail.com">matthew.j.tuttle@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Large Group Coordinator: Jonathan Hui<br />(<a href="mailto:huiboi@gmail.com">huiboi@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Small Group Coordinator: Priscilla Lin<br />(<a href="mailto:priscillas.got.mail@gmail.com">priscillas.got.mail@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Outreach Coordinator: Winnie Lee<br />(<a href="mailto:winniewjlee@gmail.com">winniewjlee@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Administrator: Tamaria Chan<br />(<a href="mailto:yummm.spaghetti@gmail.com">yummm.spaghetti@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Prayer Coordinator: Karen Ching<br />(<a href="mailto:fallen4grace@gmail.com">fallen4grace@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Social Justice Coordinator: Nathan Bixler<br />(<a href="mailto:nathan.bixler@gmail.com">nathan.bixler@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Back-to-Basics Praise Team Liasons: Brendon Yee & Glory Eshareturi<br />(<a href="mailto:byeehaaw@gmail.com">byeehaaw@gmail.com</a>, <a href="mailto:glorylov3@gmail.com">glorylov3@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Publicity Coordinator: Joanna Lee<br />(<a href="mailto:liddoshootinstar@gmail.com">liddoshootinstar@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />Hospitality Coordinator: Tamaria Chan<br />(<a href="mailto:yummm.spaghetti@gmail.com">yummm.spaghetti@gmail.com</a>)BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-21502460423983443812009-10-09T13:08:00.000-07:002009-11-09T13:16:45.349-08:00Large Group: CommunitySpeaker: Brian Murphy from Union Christian Center Church<br /><br /><ul><li>The idea of an isolated person is not Biblical.</li><li>Does that mean I can't do anything alone?</li><li>There are some things you need to conquer, but you don't have to do it alone.</li><li>We want to do thing linearly - "Well, if we get this done first, then we can do this..."</li><li>Are we talking about outreach or inreach tonight?

I don't know about you guys, but that blows my mind.<br /><br />Upon realizing this, I wish I could say I was filled with excitement and enthusiasm in anticipation for the semester to come. Going over in my mind the plans that eboard has made, the courses I will be taking, my new house and housemates, I simply just can't wait to be back in glorious Binghamton. Absorbing the wisdom and knowledge of higher education. Reuniting with the closest of friends. Soaking in the beautiful summer sun on the softball fields. And above all, diving into the center of God's work on the campus through InterVarsity.<br /><br />That's what I wish I could say. In all honesty, what I actually felt was nothing like that. Perhaps maybe the exact opposite. There was no excitement. When I realized that there was only 6 weeks left in the summer, I felt...blah.<br /><br />There was a sense of confusion. Somehow, I didn't really believe that the summer is already more than half over. As if the mundane routine into which my summer has diminished blinded me from looking ahead, leaving me devoid of an accurate sense of time.<br /><br />There was a sense of failure. I haven’t accomplished what I had hoped to this summer.<br /><br />Upon realizing that summer had only 6 weeks left, I felt pretty crappy. I was disappointed in how the summer was going so far, and I wasn't excited to start the semester again in the fall.<br /><br />And then I realized why.<br /><br />It had been weeks since I've prayed. A real prayer, not a "Thank you God for the food" but an honest heart-to-heart talk with God.<br />It had been weeks since I've opened my Bible. And read it. Aside from the Scripture readings at church on Sundays.<br />Even on Sundays, worship has felt empty.<br /><br />I've allowed myself to drift away from God, even for the span of just a few weeks. I've allowed myself to become lazy, spending way too much time playing video games. I've succumbed to the lies that Satan has been feeding me, and have lost sight of the God who gives me life.<br /><br />The truth is, <span style="font-weight: bold;">we are most vulnerable during the summer</span>, and Satan hits us hard. The summer gives us a false sense of time, that we have so much of it, even when we're busy with jobs or classes or whatever. We become lazy. We become apathetic.<br /><br />I don't know if you're in the same boat as me, but whatever boat you're in, remember God.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Remember </span>the sacrifice that was made on the cross, and that He did it out of love.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Remember </span>the new life that we have in Him.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Remember </span>the desire he has to simply talk to us, to be in relationship with us.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Remember </span>those who don't know Him, and how it breaks God's heart so deeply.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Remember </span>that He has a plan for us, greater than any plan we can come up with for ourselves.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Remember </span>that power He has to transform our lives for the better.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Remember </span>the power He instills in us to be agents of change in the world we live in.<br /><br />God never intended for us to lead a dull and mundane lifestyle.<br />There's enough time left this summer to turn things around if you need to.<br /><br />Now I am starting to get excited. I can't wait to join with you all again in the fall, to dive headfirst into the work that God has prepared for us, and to continue living our lives in a manner that is worthy of the calling He has given us. Get ready. Before you know it, we’ll be back at school again.BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-49876298903936772562009-06-20T21:20:00.000-07:002009-06-20T21:30:56.834-07:00Where are you now? (tuttle)Hey Fellowship,<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Can you believe it's been a month since Basileia?</span><br /><br />Take a moment, a deep breath. Reflect on this past month. Has it gone fast or slow? Haveyou been busy? How much time this past month have you spent working? Hanging out? Sleeping? <span style="font-size:130%;">Now, how much of that time have you spent with God?</span><br /><br />If you're anything like me, then that last question was not a pleasant one to answer. At Basileia, you may have made big promises, committed to do things, or welcomed new practices into your life that haven't really materialized since you've come home. Personally, I'm one of those people who can barely remember to take my contacts out at night, so remembering to pray before I go to bed or spending some quiet time with God are not things that I find it easy to commit to.<br /><br />Coming home, you may find that you don't have a lot of emotional or spiritual support. You may have trouble finding a church like the one you have in Binghamton, or you may be realizing how vital small gruop or large group was to your spiritual well-being. It's possible that you feel lonely, unsupported, or even backslidden.<br /><br />Now here's the good news: <span style="font-weight: bold;">Jesus Christ is Lord of all</span>, seated at God's right hand, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given. And no amount of backsliding, broken promises, discouragement, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God.<br /><br />So what do you do? Summer is nowhere near over! That means that there's no reason to give up hope. Here are some things that might help:<br /><br /><ol><li>Before waking up at 11am and staying up until 3am becomes too habitual, <span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" >set up a time and place for you to spend time with God</span>. It doesn't need to be fancy, just you, God and a Bible. Try it out. :]</li><li>If you haven't started reading the books you bought, do it now! If you didn't buy any books and are regretting that decision, here are some suggestions: <a href="http://www.ivpress.com/cgi-ivpress/book.pl/code=2220">Out of the Saltshaker and Into the World</a> and <a href="http://www.ivpress.com/cgi-ivpress/book.pl/code=3607">Jesus Without Religion</a>.</li><li>If you need to, <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">confess</span> and </span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:130%;">repent</span>. </span>If you've found yourself back in a place where you didn't want to be, or you're facing new challenges since you've been home, then give it to God. Remember that sin has been conquered and that as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.</li><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Keep in touch with people from IV!</span> For those of us who don't live in the city, this may not be as easy, but it doesn't hurt to drop a line or facebook some of your friends from school. Let them know what's up, keep them updated on what's going on in your life and see how they're doing. <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Pray together</span></span>.</li></ol>That's all I have for now.

(tammy)aaaannnddd we're back!<br /><br /><p>i know it's been a couple of weeks since returning from our adventures at saranac lake, but let's not forget what we've learned. now that you've had several days to let it sink in, let's live out what He has shared with us that week. you may need more time to mull over it, but here are some ways that can help us continue to remember the things God has revealed to us:</p><ol><li>I know this may sound weird, but <strong><span style="font-size:130%;">write a letter to yourself</span></strong>.<br /><br />Write to yourself about your experience at Basileia, not necessarily the things you did, but the things that God spoke to you about, and how He revealed those things to you.<br /><br />Write about your hopes, your excitement, your plans, and what you took away from that week.<br /><br />Keep it in a safe place or give it to a friend to hold on to it.<br /><br />Bring it to school with you in August so you could read it again as the semester craziness begins.<br /><br /><em>I'm working on this one. But I'm going to do it and maybe mail it to myself.</em><br /></li><li>ACTUALLY <span style="font-size:130%;"><strong>read the books you bought</strong></span> from basileia!<br /><br />If you didn't buy some books from the bookstore because you wanted to buy them online, please order them!<br /><br />If you bought a book to give to someone you had in mind, make sure you give it to them ASAP.<br /><br />Read at your own pace. It's okay if you're a slow reader like me or a super fast one like Pam, just as long as you're reading!<br /><br />Try reading a chapter or section of the book and then pray about it. If you want, try journaling about it, or blog about it, or talk to someone about it, or something. Make something of what you learn and share it.<br /><br />Find someone or a group of people who bought the same book as you and read it "together." You don't have to literally read it together. Just read the same section and then talk about it. That person can also hold you accountable to reading it.<br /><br /><em>I'm currently reading "Invitation to Solitude and Silence," by Ruth Haley Barton and God knows it's just what I need. Mike Leung supposedly is reading another book and then we're supposed to switch eventually. Unless Carrie finds her copy first :]</em> </li><br /><li>Find a prayer partner to <strong><span style="font-size:130%;">pray regularly</span></strong> with you this summer!<br /><br />Pray on a regular basis - it could be everyday, every week, every two weeks. Just make sure you are consistent and diligent in doing it. But don't let it become a chore! It's definitely a spiritual discipline.<br /><br />Share with each other your burdens, desires, praises, requests, or just anything God puts on your hearts. Listen to each other, and challenge each other as well.<br /><br />Pray specifically and with faith.<br /><br />Pray for the upcoming semester.<br /><br />Pray for the 14,000+ students we need to reach at Binghamton University.<br /><br />Pray for our fellowship and for growth (deeper in His Spirit and higher in numbers!) and that we would be the impact on campus we always say we want to be.<br /><br />Memorize verses with your prayer partner and pray from Scripture as well!<br /><br /><em>I've prayed with Karen every night so far (ooh, except one!) this week, and it has definitely been a blessing.

(tammy)hello, brothers and sisters!<br /><br />I am putting on my treasurer's hat and will use this blog entry as an FAQ for a few of the financial issues that have been going on this semester. If you have any other questions or concerns, leave a comment or email me at yummm.spaghetti@gmail.com.<br /><br /><em>What are some of the treasurer's responsibilities? </em><br /><ul><li>Take an open book exam & practical exam from studying the treasurer's handbook provided by the SA</li><br /><li>Handle all financial forms and procedures related to the SA chartered group (fundraiser prior approval forms, budget request form, budget appeal form, religious prior approval forms, prior approval forms, vouchers for reimbursements, etc.), of which there are MANY.</li><br /><li>Keep a tight record of all expenses and income</li><br /><li>Take care of fundraisers</li><br /><li style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">Fill out all forms in an efficient, proper manner</li><br /><li style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">Attend all treasurers' meetings</li><br /><li style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">Keep track of allotted SA account </li><li style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">Check the IVCF SA mailbox every day</li></ul><em>I never really heard much about our group's money before. Why are there all of a sudden so many issues with our SA account?</em> <ul><li>With our group growing tremendously, we need the funds so we can afford to hold events, reach out to our campus, and tell others about the gospel and about our group in creative ways without having to reach into our pockets.</li><br /><li>In the past, our group has been wary about SA finances and have been taking care of IVCF's account with as little SA involvement as possible. We'd like to take more of a stand and build a good financial account and relationship with the SA.</li></ul><em>What's the difference between a "budget appeal" and a "budget request"?</em> <ul><li>The budget request happens every spring semester, where the treasurer has to fill out a form, requesting the SA to allocate money for our fellowship for the entire next school year.</li><br /><li>After the request approval, the SA gives a date, time, and place where the e-board has five minutes to present their case to the Vice President of Finance (VPF) and Financial Council (FinCo) of why they should be given a certain amount of money, and five minutes of Q & A.</li><br /><li>After all the student groups have presented, the VPF and FinCo allot budgeted amounts to each group and posts it up in the SA office.</li><br /><li>A student group can then make a budget appeal to argue what the VPF and FinCo allotted to request more money. the process is the same as that of a budget request except the group is given three minutes to present and three minutes of Q & A</li></ul><p><em>How much money did we receive from the SA for this entire 2008-2009 year?</em><br />$300<br /><br /><em>How much money did we receive from the SA for the entire 2009-2010 year?</em><br />$600<br /><em><br />How much money do we have in our account now?</em><br /><br />Right now we have $2,630 in our account because all expenses from this semester have not been subtracted. We accumulated funds from our service auctions and rollover money from last spring.</p><p><em>Why is it taking so long for my reimbursements to come back to me?</em></p><p>This is how the process works:</p><ul><li>A religious prior approval form for the expense has to be submitted.</li><br /><li>The treasurer has to wait for that form to be approved by the VPF, who goes through these forms once a week.</li><br /><li>Once those approval forms are approved, the treasurer needs to fill out a voucher form.</li><br /><li>The voucher then has to have the receipts attached, with the signature of the person being reimbursed.</li><br /><li>Then after the voucher and form are submitted, the treasurer has to wait for the yellow slip to be in the IVCF mailbox to then tell the person that he/she has to pick up the check from the Couper Administration Building or have it sent to them to receive their reimbursement check.</li></ul><p><em>What are the plans for our 2009-2010 year?</em> </p><p>Right now I don't have details, but here are a few general things/ideas:</p><ul><li>There will definitely be a system/process set up so that I can keep control of the expenses of our group. It will probably be a form that people will have to fill out for me before they buy something. </li><br /><li>I will probably hold office hours next semester (so cool, right? I know! It was Carrie Moorhead's idea) so that I can make myself available to the fellowship members, answer any questions, and set aside some time for me to focus on just fulfilling some administrative duties.</li><li>I will meet with the new VPF to talk about our shaky financial standing and how we can get onto a path of good financial standing.</li></ul><p>Once I figure out some more details and processes, I'll post them up.</p><p>I hope this was helpful! </p>BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-82400726433399427112009-02-17T14:55:00.000-08:002009-02-17T15:22:26.528-08:00Living Purposefully - KatyHello Fellowship!<br /><br />As March and housing sign ups rapidly approach, and the phrase "intentional housing" sweeps through the fellowship, I wanted to add new something to the conversation. While I believe more strongly than most that it matters who with and where you chose to live next year, even more important than that is how you chose to live in your current resident this year. No sense in moving across campus to reach such and such a dorm, when you never bother to care for the dorm where you live currently. Please do keep praying and thinking about where God would like to use you next year, but for this semester, try some of the following tips, and walk in Jesus' footsteps of living with the people you are reaching out to.<br /><br />Tip 1. Do you have a door on your room? (I bet you do!) Make sure to print the Large Group flyer that is sent out weekly and post it on your door. Go the extra step and ask your RD for permission to put it on the bulletin boards around your dorm. If you live on the first floor, consider putting up IV advertisements in your window. <br /><br />Tip 2. Another door suggestion. Keep it open!! While obviously if your h- core studying, sleeping, changing etc… you will want your privacy, but when you’re just chilling in your room, try leaving your door open. It might feel weird for a while, but it gives an open invitation to your hall mates to pop in, say hi, and chat. Unless you are all about door to door evangelism, it’s from these casual interactions that relationships will be formed, and opportunities to share the gospel arise. <br /><br />Tip 3. Oh! Be careful little ears what you hear. Now that you have your door open during your chill time, people will probably be able to hear the music you’re chilling to (or in my case; singing, very very loudly.) Think about how the music we listen to/ belt out in the shower reflects your life, your faith and your God. This does not mean you can only listen to praise and worship, or even Christian music. (Both work. I’ve gotten the opportunity to share the Gospel with an acquaintance because she asked me about a worship song I was singing when I was washing my hands after going to the bathroom. I’ve also shared the Gospel with two friends when I was in high school illustrating different biblical truths with Bright Eye’s quotes. (Coincidentally, that conversation also happened in a bathroom....)) Point is, that nothing is not spiritual, and the music we listen to needs to reflect that. If you are listening to music that you know God isn’t down with, cut it out. <br /><br />Tip 4. Assoxinate!! If your building does assoxination or another building wide game, participate! You will get to know people, have fun, and support your res life staff. <br /><br />Tip 5. Go to programs your RA offers. Even if no one else goes, your RA needs Jesus too, and s/he will love you for coming out!<br /><br />Tip 6. Do you have international students on your hall? Its never too late to start a friendship with them. Stop and chat with them, offer to correct an English paper, have them teach you something from home. (Or try to teach you… I still have no idea how to play that Korean tile game (Go Stop) even after watching them for an hour or so.) If your hyphenated nationality is the same as theirs (aka they are Korean international students, and you are Korean-American) use your hyphenatedness to its fullest!! I don’t really know what that might look like, but my guess is that you have something unique to offer them being a part of both cultures. <br /><br />Tip 7. Happy Holidays!! For 3$ at Wal-Mart you can buy enough holiday themed lollipops/ nerds/ pixy stix/ what have you for every one on your hall. Buy some and go to door handing them out. You’ll get to familiarize your self with your hall mates, and a permanent reputation for being “nice.” (Nicenice isn’t straight up evangelsim, but it is a good first step.)<br /><br />Tip 8. Next time your at Wal-Mart, invest (don’t steal from the dinning hall!!) in some bowls, forks/ chopsticks, salt& pepper, and easy mac and cup ramon. Next time your chilling with your door open, and you over hear a hall mate complaining “Im SOOOO hungry right now!” stick you head out and say, “Hey, ________________, I just over heard you say you were hungry. I’ve got some easy mac and cup noodles if you want some.” Lots of times they will say yes, and then you have an insta conversation the 3 minuets it takes to cook the food. Even if they think your weird for asking, it’s the “nice” weird, which sounds like a pretty good description for a Christian to have. It was over easy mac my freshman year that I got to share my faith with my pledging neighbors.<br /><br />Tip 9. Next time you’re at Wal-Mart, invest in a soup cup or two, and a couple cans of Cambell’s soup. Next time your chilling in your room with the door open and hear your hall mate’s nasty cough, you can heat them up/ bring them soup. If you wanted to go the extra mile, you can buy the little packs of tissues and or cough drops at Wal-Mart or the dollar store and give them those too. They will love knowing you care! (Even if again, they think you’re a little weird.)<br /><br />Tip 10. Next time you do laundry, bring some reading down with you and stay with your stuff. Not only is this a good idea in light of past cases of laundry room vandalism, but others who stick around too are usually up for conversations, and you can meet people who live on different floors.<br /><br />Try these out, talk to your hitches about what your doing or if you have more ideas, and if something cool happens, post it as a comment!<br /><br />Much Love<br /><br />-Katy McFadden, Out Reach CoordinatorBU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4074839989339126479.post-61207436796530306122009-02-17T06:24:00.000-08:002009-02-17T12:02:49.595-08:00what is a HTCH and what does that have to do with me?hi guys, tammy here.<br /><br />for those of you who missed our town hall meeting on valentine's day, here's a chunk of what we talked about:<br /><br />imagine if all the IVCF members were uprooted and disappeared from the binghamton university campus.<br /><br />do you think anyone would miss our presence on campus?<br /><br />the things we've been doing on campus have been great. we've begun to see the lives of our fellow classmates, roommates, floormates, and other people on campus slowly (and sometimes quickly) transform. <br /><br />but are our transformed lives making an impact on this campus? because if they aren't, then how can God use us to renew the campus? <br /><br />most of you know that there has been a huge community-focused movement in IVCF. we're beginning to see a glimpse of the possible and potential opportunities God has for us to make an impact through the community we live in. <br /><br />no one can make decisions for you. i'm not <span style="font-style: italic;">just</span> talking about big decisions like whether or not you should transfer, where you should live next year, or what classes you should take. i'm talking about the attitude you have in making those big decisions, as well as the smaller, every-day decisions. <br /><br />so when it comes down to making those decisions (both big and small), we're asking you to do two "i's":<br /><br />take <span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">i</span>nitiative</span>.<br />and be <span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">i</span>ntentional</span>.<br /><br />my pastor described the definition of "initiative" this way: you're <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">aware</span> </span>of the needs around you and you <span style="font-style: italic;font-size:130%;" >care</span> enough to do something about them. neither of those things can be without the other. you can be aware of the needs around you but not care enough to do something about it (i call that apathy...not one of my favorite things in the world), and you can care a lot about needs enough to do something about it, but may not necessarily be aware of what needs need to be fulfilled.<br /><br />so take initiative. if you care enough about needs to do something about it, find out what the needs are. if you're aware and know what needs are around you, find a way to do something about it. God is constantly working and constantly moving in and through people and circumstances. He's got a plan and you're huge part of it.<br /><br />so be intentional about your decisions. if you believe God has a purpose for your life, live like you believe it! take initiative with purprose and pure intentions.<br /><br />imagine what God can do if we all take initiative and live intentionally in obedience to Him?<br /><br />so what do "HTCHs" have to do with all of this? this hospitality team community ministry provides a huge opportunity where you could put into practice taking initiative and living intentionally. <br /><br />HTCH = hospitality team community head.<br /><br />they are the ones in charge of the hospitality environment of their community. they are the leaders in creating an inviting, welcoming, fun, and interesting environment for people to encounter God and build relationships.<br /><br />but without followers, there are no leaders. these HTCHs understand and taken on the challenge of taking the initiative and living intentionally. and they could use your help in doing the same as they organize and plan events and activities such as community dinners and follow-up for their community.<br /><br />so who are these HTCHs?<br /><br />newing = sara ito <span class="link" id="Node190-[0]"><a tabindex="1" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/contacts/ui/ContactManager?js=RAW&maximize=true&hide=true&position=absolute&hl=en&emailsLink=true&sk=true&titleBar=false&border=NONE&eventCallback=ParentStub1234900105415&zx=5gsbf6-8tmykn#" name="contact-email" onclick="doEvent('INITIATE_EMAIL', 'to', "smito011@hotmail.co.jp", 'name', "Sara Ito"); return false;" class="cmgr-link" id="Node191-[0]">smito011@hotmail.co.jp</a></span><span id="Node192-[0]"> </span><br />dickinson = michelle an <span class="link" id="Node190-[0]"><a tabindex="1" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/contacts/ui/ContactManager?js=RAW&maximize=true&hide=true&position=absolute&hl=en&emailsLink=true&sk=true&titleBar=false&border=NONE&eventCallback=ParentStub1234900105415&zx=5gsbf6-8tmykn#" name="contact-email" onclick="doEvent('INITIATE_EMAIL', 'to', "man1@binghamton.edu", 'name', "Michelle An"); return false;" class="cmgr-link" id="Node191-[0]">man1@binghamton.edu</a></span><span id="Node192-[0]"> </span><br />ciw = rachel goldberg <span class="link" id="Node190-[0]"><a tabindex="1" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/contacts/ui/ContactManager?js=RAW&maximize=true&hide=true&position=absolute&hl=en&emailsLink=true&sk=true&titleBar=false&border=NONE&eventCallback=ParentStub1234900105415&zx=5gsbf6-8tmykn#" name="contact-email" onclick="doEvent('INITIATE_EMAIL', 'to', "lostmiaminut@gmail.com", 'name', "Rachel Goldberg"); return false;" class="cmgr-link" id="Node191-[0]">lostmiaminut@gmail.com</a></span><span id="Node192-[0]"> </span><br />mountainview = may wu <span class="link" id="Node190-[0]"><a tabindex="1" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/contacts/ui/ContactManager?js=RAW&maximize=true&hide=true&position=absolute&hl=en&emailsLink=true&sk=true&titleBar=false&border=NONE&eventCallback=ParentStub1234900105415&zx=5gsbf6-8tmykn#" name="contact-email" onclick="doEvent('INITIATE_EMAIL', 'to', "hwu4@binghamton.edu", 'name', "May Wu"); return false;" class="cmgr-link" id="Node191-[0]">hwu4@binghamton.edu</a></span><span id="Node192-[0]"> </span><br />off-campus = wesley yee <span class="link" id="Node190-[0]"><a tabindex="1" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/contacts/ui/ContactManager?js=RAW&maximize=true&hide=true&position=absolute&hl=en&emailsLink=true&sk=true&titleBar=false&border=NONE&eventCallback=ParentStub1234900105415&zx=5gsbf6-8tmykn#" name="contact-email" onclick="doEvent('INITIATE_EMAIL', 'to', "wyee1@binghamton.edu", 'name', "Wesley Yee"); return false;" class="cmgr-link" id="Node191-[0]">wyee1@binghamton.edu</a></span><span id="Node192-[0]"> <br /><br />if you would like to help be the followers that these leaders need or just have more questions about your specific community, drop them an email and let them know.<br /><br />susquehanna, hillside, and hinman currently do not have HTCHs. if you would like to help start up community activities or get involved somehow in these communities, email binghamtonivcf@gmail.com for more information.<br /><br />if you are a <span style="font-weight: bold;">small group leader</span>, you are highly encouraged to actively participate and work with the HTCH in the community <span style="font-style: italic;">you are currently serving</span>.<br /><br />if you are a <span style="font-weight: bold;">small group member</span>, you are highly encouraged to attend the small group <span style="font-style: italic;">in your community</span>. <br /><br />if you attend a <span style="font-weight: bold;">small group in a different community</span> because of schedule conflicts, you are highly encouraged to stay active <span style="font-style: italic;">in the community you live in</span>, although you are welcome to participate in your small group's community activities (if you have the time) in addition to your own living community's activities.<br /><br />don't be surprised if you get an email from your HTCH quite soon!<br />if you have any other questions, leave a comment or email binghamtonivcf@gmail.com.<br /></span>BU IVCF E-boardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17603760271069327757noreply@blogger.com0
