Wednesday, September 29, 10:00 am First Congregational Church .y' Dr. Richard Mouw, * President Thursday, September 30, 11:35 am Travis Auditorium Dr. Dudley Woodberry, Dean, School of World Mission

The Fuller Community worships together twice each week. The Wednesday event is an All Seminary Worship Service at which time the entire seminary, including support staff, worships together. The seminary encourages the closing of seminary offices for this worship time, thus insuring maximum participation and collective celebration.

The second opportunity for worship during the week occurs on Thursday. This event is an attempt to relate worship to the mission of the Church in the world. Both of these worship experiences are coordinated through the Office of the Dean of the Chapel. The Office of Church Relations Located on the 2nd floor of Cornell Hall (behind t h e Catalyst)— (818)584-5580
