SCC Minutes for Sunday, April 14, 1996

The meeting began with devotions by Scott Hanson.

Committee Reports

• Outreach will have visited all of the on-campus people on their list by the end of the year, but probably won't make it through the off-campus list.
• Worship. The next (and final) worship setting this semester is the Chicago Folk Mass. The committee is writing a new liturgy to use sometime this fall.
• Education. Scott White is giving a student lecture on April 19th. He will discuss his bike trip across the country (Portland to Portland, Oregon to Maine).
• Social Activities. Planning for the spring banquet (May 3rd) is going well. In addition to the usual entertainment, there will be some fun awards; possibly for the best (or worst) cost supper or most dishwashing.
• Hospitality's party last month was fun and included a viewing of comet Hyakutake.
• Fine Arts. Terry has lined up the next show, which should be going in soon. He'll have more artists lined up for shows soon.
• Social Ministry is running a book drive for Eastern Europe and a school supply drive for poor students at Midvale and O'Keeffe middle schools. On Saturday, April 20th, Kelly will lead a litter cleanup and flower planting around the Campus Center; she has wonderful plans made for the 618 bulbs she ordered. Finally, on April 26th, Social Ministries will serve another meal at St. Mark's.
• Directing Committee. Brent says the last meeting was normal. They have a new "interpretation committee" which is in charge of communication with congregations (public relations).
