that address in the November/December issue.
The banquet program will feature students of Bryn Athyn College
discussing how service has helped to shape their experience at the College.
They will talk about what service has taught them about themselves and
others, and how the College’s motto – Think for yourselves. Live for others. – has
helped them develop their personal lives. They will also discuss what service
will continue to look like in their future and in their professional lives after
graduation.

update: the new christian bible study project
Steve David
The New Christian Bible Study Project is going strong. Our “Writings for
Everyone” initiative took another jump forward, as a student team combined
forces with staff and volunteers to import 51 more translations of books of the
Writings – now in 17 languages. Potential reach: 3.7 billion people.
Our “Cover to Cover Commentary” project jumped, too. We gathered
explanations of the internal sense by New Church scholars, organized them,
and pulled them into our system, so we now have commentary for most of the
Word.
Plus, site traffic is up to 115,000 visits per month! There’s a long way to go
before we hit the big leagues of Bible Study sites, but given the internal sense,
the New Church ought to be able to do it.
