The Hub: A Gathering for College and Beyond
Sometimes you hit a fork in the road. It usually happens about the time you enter college, and it can last on into your 20s. Your options are limitless, your future wide open. Where do you go? Which road will you travel? The Hub is the center of this wheel of activity, and it helps to have something there that will guide you. If you’re college-age or beyond, we’re offering this unique and interactive chance to experience guidance from God and others who have hit the fork in the road.
Join us at The Hub, Tuesday nights, 7:30 p.m. in the Alcove.
You can also find us on the web HERE.
