Events at Parmer Hall

FootPrintz (HipHop group on campus) is holding its annual spring showcase. Come support you friends and classmates!

Good Friday marks the death of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. In this reflective service, led by Campus Ministries Pastors, Worship Community, and featuring Scripture, silence, music, and a powerful percussion and dance piece, we will remember and open up the meaning of the events on that day, and invite worshipers to renewed prayer and dedication. Free journals will be available to help students with mindfulness and attentiveness in the journey of Easter weekend. Tickets required. Campus Ministries credit is available.
