At the beginning of the semester we had a women's night to kick off our Bible Studies, and get women signed up. We had around 30 women in attendance! There are now 7 active all female-bible studies on the Campus of UNO, with about 43 students who attend weekly. 4 of the 7 studies are lead by other students!
At the Women's Night. In this photo are 3 of the students I see on a regular basis. From the right: Me, Colleen, Morgan, Sister Mary Agnes, and Grace. |
Chipotle was catered for dinner and we invited the Sisters of Mercy to join us from Lincoln, NE. Sister Mary Agnes gave a talk about Joy, and referenced shampoo bottles which had all of the girls laughing. (Yes, apparently Nuns do have hair under their veil!)

Katie, who works for the diocese of Omaha also helped in the coordination of the event. It was decided that Taylor and I were to hold the women's night at our apartment. Although it was crowded, it was a much more intimate setting for the talk and discussion and I think it went over very well.
In the end it was a successful night. Taylor and I are talking about doing something similar in January when we get back from the winter break!
