Super Bowl XLIII UBC Style

So, last year the college staff at UBC decided to go all out for their Super Bowl party. As many other events they have thrown, this is becoming a tradition for the college ministry. We take all the chairs out of the Chapel of the Dove (where the college ministry meets) and we put out a ton of props, everything from a turf field to stadium lights and bleachers. This year things were complicated by the ice storm and the fact that we had to have the main church service in the chapel instead of the sanctuary b/c of heat issues. But God is good.... we were able to pull off the same magnitude of setup that we had last year...even with all the setbacks. So much fun!

Ice Storm 2009

As most of you probably know...or experienced...we had a major ice storm in Fayetteville last week. They are saying this is the worst ice storm to hit Arkansas in state history. We lost power on Tuesday and had to go camp out at the BCM where Cole works. They had a fireplace and a gas stove and oven. After two days of "playing pioneer", the romance of the ice storm begin to melt away. The damage to campus was pretty bad, especially Old Main lawn. But we had a great time hanging out with college students and sitting by the fire. It was awesome to get to interact with people without the invastion of the TV or the Wii. Here are some pictures I took from around campus.
