Dear Fellows and friends of CSLI Annapolis,
 
Our CSLI year is progressing along with:

- 50 Fellows/Mentors participating in the Year 1 & Year 2 Fellows Program
- 25 Midshipmen participating in the Student's Associate's Program
- Over 20 Saint John's College students participating in the SJC Christian Fellowships
- Over 60 Pastors participating in the quarterly pastor luncheon events
- Over 25 lay people participating in the Laymen's Associate's Program

I try hard not to associate numbers with success because in the end, one new disciple of Jesus is worth a lifetime of commitment on our part.  But I find these numbers help give you a good picture of the work God has entrusted to us at CSLI Annapolis.

This month it is time to start thinking about the next Fellows class for which we will start receiving applications in February for a class start of May 15, 2017.
 
If you are considering participating in the Fellows Program, you might want to attend one of the monthly lectures in Dec/Jan/Feb.  See calendar below for dates/times.  Just send Jim Phillips a note at  J.phillips@cslewisinstitute.org  if you want to attend.
 
If you are a Fellow or mentor and know someone who might want to be a Fellow, please direct them to Fellows Program  for a description of the Fellows Program.
 
Three months back, we began a series on the work of CSLI Annapolis in the Annapolis community.  This video was created to summarize our activities:  CSLI Annapolis Story   Located only a block or two from the Annapolis community, Saint John's College, the U.S. Naval Academy, and the Maryland State Government, the Institute is positioned to serve the four legs of our society (community, education, military, and government).

The past three months we focused on the work of the Institute in the legs of community and education, and military; this month, we look at government.
 
The C.S. Lewis Institute in Annapolis is located one block from the seat of our state government.  This part of our community has been untouched (directly) by the Institute until now.  But we are beginning to see God at work in bringing us together with the men and women that serve our state and local government.

This work is too new to provide details, but it is clear that God has placed men and women within our government who have a heart for Jesus and the community/state in which they serve.  They are reaching out to like-minded believers and organizations to provide assistance in helping them frame the truths of the gospel in language a culture that is hostile to the gospel will understand.  I.e., they are seeking to be "Daniel's and Esther's in Babylon"!

Please pray that this door for effective work will be fully opened to us and that we in the Institute will have the wisdom to winsomely support our state and local legislators including our governor and his staff.

Again, our prayer is that CSLI Annapolis be a blessing to the government component of the Annapolis culture. 
 
Thanks for your support of CSLI Annapolis.

Love you all,
Jim
