February 17

 We Aren't Strangers- Join us on Thursdays night at 6:30pm for a meal and for a safe place to find community and belonging. 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 you, and support you as a student here at Texas Tech.  Our conversations will be participant lead and all people who attend have a space to teach us about their gifts, interests, passions, faith, philosophy, life, and journey. Come a join us! We meet at Canterbury House at 2407 16th Street, just one block from campus. 

 February 20  

Sunday Worship at Canterbury - Join us for worship at 6pm at Canterbury Episcopal Campus Ministry at Texas Tech.  Our address is 2407 16th Street.  We are located just one block east of campus.   We will share a home cooked meal served by the wonderful Episcopalians from St. Christopher's.  We look forward to worshipping with you!  To read more about our worship services, click here.
