Dear friends and Fellows,

We are excited about the events the Institute has to offer over the next two months.

For our Fellows past and present, we have booked Dr. Randy Newman (author and apologist) to conduct an apologist seminar on February 27 and 28. Randy is a gifted speaker and facilitator and will be working with our Fellows to sharpen their apologetic skills.

In March we will have a dessert/coffee seminar with Terry Lindvall on Wednesday, March 11, 7-9pm, at the Federal House upper room. Terry will be speaking on: "If C.S. Lewis met Stephen Colbert, Thoughts about Humor, Culture, and Joy." Terry is also a C.S. Lewis Scholar and this event promises laughter and challenging thought. A separate invitation has been sent for you to register and gather more information for this event. If you haven't received it, click here. 

For our Mentors past and present, Terry will be our speaking at our annual Mentor Appreciation Dinner on Thursday, March 12, 6:30-9pm, at the Treaty of Paris restaurant. Terry will provide mentor training mixed with great humor. A separate invitation has been sent to our mentors for this event.
