Fresh starts--Convocation

TCU's Convocation ceremony marks the official start of our 2010-2011 academic year, the 100th year in Fort Worth. There will be a wonderful celebration with a performance of the TCU Chorale, and the Minister to the University will call on the community to honor God with their giftings and talents. The Chancellor will review our past accomplishments and cast a vision of new goals and initiatives for the new year. An outstanding professor will be recognized as a model Teacher/Scholar and an inspiring Mentor will receive an award. It is a great way to start the semester, an opportunity to restate our mission, celebrate our accomplishments as a community, and identify where we need to put our collective energy in the days ahead.

Would you pray that the worship we engage in at today's Convocation be honoring to the One True God. And that those who of us who are Christ-followers in the audience will recommit ourselves to engage our spirit in the pursuit of truth. Please pray that we would see our work is an act of worship, and that we would be reinvigorated to share the love of Christ with others as we experience His blessing at TCU.
