Winter Retreat 09
Friday, 30 January 2008 - Sunday 01 February 2008 at Toah Nipi
Our Winter Retreat this year will be from 1/30/09-2/1/09. We'll be heading up to beautiful Toah Nipi Retreat Center in Rindge, NH for a weekend of time with God, rejuvination and fun. We're excited to welcome our speaker Lisa Espineli Chin, the director of International Student Ministries with InterVarsity. She was a keynote speaker at Urbana '03 and 06, InterVarsity's national missions conference. Lisa is a visionary who has a particular heart for international students. She also serves on the board of HOPE International, a non-profit organization focused on poverty alleviation through microenterprise development. Lisa was a Filipeno international student, is married to a Chinese-American man and together they have three children.
We're still brainstorming a topic but it's sure to be along the lines of faith and what it means for your life. If this is your first time at a retreat with AACF be sure to take advantage of our first-timer discount code: FIRSTTIME.

Large Group - Faith and Evil
Friday, 07:30pm - 09:00pm, 31 October 2008 at Harvard Hall 104
How does faith inform our response to seeing evil in this world? How does faith understand suffering? Come hear Finny Kuruvilla (HMS graduate who also served as a tutor in Mather House) share his thoughts about what faith has to say about evil and the response of the faith-follower.

Large Group - The Politics of Jesus
Friday, 07:30pm - 09:00pm, 03 October 2008 at Sever 113
This Friday, October 10th we're inviting Dr. Gordon Hugenberger (Senior Pastor of Park Street Church, Harvard College '74) to tackle the topic of Jesus's views on politics from an Old Testament viewpoint. While many suspect that a strong faith is simply a formula for strife, extremism, judgmentalism, and cultural isolation, Dr. Hugenberger will address why he thinks a Christian understanding of politics & law should make faith more attractive, not less, especially to those who share the Bible's values upholding justice, civility, peace, mercy, freedom, globalism, and concern for the poor & disadvantaged. The talk will be both entertaining and thought-provoking followed by extended Q & A and a reception. Please invite your friends and join us on Friday at 7:30pm in Sever 113!
Large Group - Faith & Family
Friday, 07:30pm - 09:00pm, 03 October 2008 at Harvard Hall 104
Obedience. Respect. Discipline. Honor. Face. How do these stereotypical Asian family values fit with a conception of a loving God? How does faith chance our, even better, our relationship with our parents and siblings? Come here the thoughts of Pastor Dave Swaim from Highrock this Friday at 7:30pm in Harvard Hall 104!
This week's AFA will be a party at 20 Banks (Click HERE for directions), and involves Guitar Hero, DDR, board games, food, fellowship, and lots of fun! Did I mention fun? So come along and have some fun!
Large Group - Faith & Reason
Friday, 07:30pm - 09:00pm, 25 September 2008 at Harvard Hall 104
Can Faith and Reason coexist? Are they opposites? Are they reconcilable? Come hear the thoughts of Walter Kim (associate pastor at Park Street Church) on this tough topic. We also welcome you to join us for a trip to the North End to enjoy the legendary Mike's Pastry. See you this Friday at 7:30pm in Harvard Hall 104!
Large Group
Friday, 07:00pm - 08:30pm, 19 September 2008 at Harvard Hall 104
With so much going on in our lives - academics, relationships, parties - how would we ever have time to think about things related to Faith? More importantly, why do we even need Faith? What is Faith? Join us as we begin to seek out the answers tomorrow night.
