Experience the Thiel Commitment
Fall/Winter 2012 Thiel Campus Ministry Rocks the Quad with REILLY. September 21 marked the 2nd Annual Rockin’ the Quad event sponsored by Thiel College Campus Ministry. Held on the Freshman Quad, the event was open to the entire Thiel community. Rockin’ the Quad included dinner, live music, a sampler table from Fresh Grounds Coffee House and a testimony delivered by current sophomore Sean Byham. This year’s entertainment was provided by contemporary Christian bands The AndyNeedham Band from Boston and REILLY from Philadelphia. The mission of Rockin’ the Quad—a collaboration of four student religious organizations—is to encourage fellowship among the entire Thiel campus and to introduce Thiel students to all Campus Ministry has to offer. – provided by Kaitlyn Bonzo ’14

Thiel was at the ELCA’s Youth Gathering in New Orleans in July with 35,000 other youth and adults! Check out: www.facebook.com/LutheranChampions to see photos from the Lutheran Colleges booth! Thiel senior Kayla Ohlin spent a week this summer on a mission trip in rural Appalachia. She joined her home parish, St. Paul the Apostle Parish, to reconstruct a home for a family in need. Of the experience, she said, “It was such a touching week. We were able to create something sustainable for a family who, for the first time, can now call a house a home.” Kayla, who took part in campus ministry’s first global servant trip, Mexicrew, and who has been a leader in reinvigorating Roman Catholic student ministry on campus, currently is studying abroad in South Korea at EWHA Womans University. Ohlin will return in December and graduate in May with a double major in accounting and business administration. She hopes to earn her CPA license after graduation.

New Song (Psalm 98:1) is the year-long theme for Thiel Campus Ministry worship. Each Tuesday from 12:15 to 12:45 p.m., a diverse group of student and staff preachers and worship leaders are proclaiming the Word in a wide range of songs of faith—from traditional gospel hymns to Taize chants, from South African freedom songs to the counter-cultural Christian rap of Toby Mac. New Song is also about calling forth the exceptional musical and vocal gifts of Thiel students, a number of whom are active in the Thiel Choir, and music ministries in other settings. New Song is designed to affirm the many ways that we “make a joyful noise” (Psalm 100:1); the many ways that global Christians down through the ages have “…with gratitude in their hearts sung psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God.” (Colossians 3:16) New Song also invites worshipers to explore lyrics and tunes from many other communities and musical genres with which they are less familiar—lyrics and melodies that can deepen and expand our faith (Luther knew that!) with faith-filled song. New Song: Bring One/Learn One/Be One!
