BIBLE LANDS STUDY TOUR
MAY 2016

Have you heard about our May 2016 Bible Lands Study Tour? Dr. Tim Anderson and Dr. Greg Trull are so excited to return to the Holy Land. We would love for you to join us! You can learn more at our ISRAEL TOUR INFORMATION MEETING in the EMITTE CENTER at 5:00 PM TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 22. Don’t miss it!

Let us tell you a little about where we are going. We’ll travel to southern Israel where we will experience places like the Dead Sea, Masada, and Qumran.  In that area we will have camel ride into the desert like Abraham for an overnight with Bedouins. We will then move to northern Israel and Galilee. Highlights will include Capernaum, Caesarea on the Sea and ancient Dan. We will also share worship together as part of a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. Our tour will climax in Jerusalem, the heart of the Holy Land. History will surround us as we walk in the steps of David, Nehemiah and Christ. Our last day, we will retrace the final ministry, sacrifice and resurrection of Christ. We’ll move from His healing of the lame at the Pool of Bethesda, to the prayer in Gethsemane and on to Calvary and the Open Tomb. Unforgettable. These are just a few of the amazing places we will enjoy together. If you want to see more of the sites on the tour and extension, check out our info meeting or come see us personally.

THE CORBANATOR

Do you have a love/hate relationship with commas, semi-colons and apostrophes? Do your professors often note errors on your assignments? Do you know why “me” is NOT a bad word? When someone mentions grammar, do you automatically cringe at the term? If you could say yes to any of the above, the Corbanator may be just the thing you need. The Corbanator is a four-hour workshop that will help you with some of the basics of the English language, and you can earn one free credit by taking part in the workshop.

If you are interested…
1) Sign up in the Registrar’s Office for EN 081.
2) Join the workshop every Thursday in October from 5-6 p.m.
3) Email Ellen Kersey (ekersey@corban.edu) with any particular requests you have for the workshop activities. And email her if you have any questions about the Corbanator.
