Waffles & The Word

We host a weekly Bible Study on campus at JMU to give students an opportunity to grow closer together as we engage in God’s Word. We love to ask big questions and learn new things about the text, but it’s also a great opportunity to check in on and encourage one another during the week. We’ll gather each Thursday morning at 8am in D-Hall for a Bible Study over breakfast.

Children's Ministry is having its first Parent Committee Meeting Sunday morning at 10:00 AM.  It is open to parents and anyone interested in Muhlenberg’s Children's Ministry. Grab a cup of coffee from the Gathering Area, and join us in the MAC. During this first meeting we will discuss Faith Formation and welcome any feedback. We will also look ahead to Lent and Easter. If you are interested but can't make it, that's okay! We will have this meeting the second Sunday of every month so plan to join us in March!

Show Your Team Spirit & Help the Hungry

Show your team spirit by bringing in your non-perishable food items for Patchwork Pantry. In the spirit of the Super Bowl, we will have a bin for fans of each team. The team that fills their bin with the most donations will be declared Muhlenberg's “Souper” Bowl winner.

All donations go to Patchwork Pantry and help our neighbors in need. Remember the pantry is also in need of paper products (towels, wraps, food storage bags, toilet tissue, etc.), cleansers (dish, laundry, all-purpose), diapers, and all types of personal hygiene products.
