Panel Discussion on Church Participation

This panel discussion will explore three related issues: First, how do we go about choosing a church, and what kinds of experiences have our members had in various area churches? Secondly, how do we get involved in our church once we've found one (an often difficult task for busy grad students)? Finally, what does it mean that IVGrad is a 'para-church organization,' and how do we address the sometimes conflicting committments to a local church and a campus fellowship? There will be sharing and discussion from four panel members, and a chance for questions from the audience.

The panellists are:

Rachel Ahern (2nd year in Classics,attends Peninsula Bible Church)

Marion Martin (4th year in Chemistry, attends Abundant Life Christian Fellowship)

Charis Quay (4th year in Physics, attends Holy Trinity Episcopal Church)

Karan Venayagamoorthy (3rd year in Civil and Environmental Engineering, attends Vineyard Christian Felowship)
