Weekly Activities
September 25-October 1 - Free Lunches
Come by Canterbury between 11:30am and 1pm (Monday-Thursday) for a simple and quick lunch. Since the chaplain is not in town this week, there are sandwich supplies in the kitchen, in addition to all the normal food items like mac' and cheese, rise, ramen, yogurt, etc. Feel free to use these supplies to make your own lunch this week. Oh, and there is also a large amount of leftovers in the fridge from some diocesan activities over the weekend. Feel free eat on those leftovers as well. Enjoy!
September 28 - We Aren't Strangers - Trip to the Fair
We are going to the Panhandle South Plains Fair today! We will meet at the Canterbury parking lot at 6pm and carpool to the fair. Canterbury will pay for the fair tickets, parking, and food for all active Canterbury students. The fair can be hot, and you can become easily sun burned. Make sure to come prepared.
What is We Aren't Strangers? It will be a time for connection, belonging, sharing our stories, expressing our emotions, and the great thing about this event will be that it is open to all people. This is a space where all people can be fed physically, emotionally, and spiritually while at the same time honoring everyone’s faith traditions and gifts and light that we all bring to this community. And we promise that we will not try to convert you or change you. That is not the way we do things here. All we want to do is to know you, love, and support you as a student here at Texas Tech.
September 30 - Houston Cougars Vs. Texas Tech Football Parking Fundraiser
Time: Noon. Today, we will be selling parking for the football game. The people who are signed up are Leann, Kayla, Dann, and Jarrett. We still need at least two more people to sign up. Text the chaplain if you are free to help.
October 1 - The Journey: Exploring Spirituality, Theology, Ethics, Justice, and Mission
Join us for The Journey at 4:00pm on Sunday at Canterbury Episcopal Campus Ministry at Texas Tech. This semester, we will be studying the Gospel of John. If you are interested in asking serious questions about your faith, come and join us!
October 1 - Taize Healing and Contemplative Prayer Service (and Meal)
Join us for a Taizé Contemplative Prayer Service and Healing Service at 6pm at Canterbury Episcopal Campus Ministry at Texas Tech. This service will include contemplative chants as well as a service of healing and anointing, also known as the sacrament of unction. The sacrament of unction is a sacred and holy act. Those who are sick in body, mind, or spirit or those who are seeking prayers on behalf of another and welcome to participate. We will share a home cooked meal served by the wonderful Episcopalians from St. Paul's, St. Stephen's, St. Christopher's, and St. Luke's.
