1st Post of Fall

It's officially fall this week! Although our 80-degree temperatures certainly aren't indicating it. However, I'm glad we get to savor a few more days of summer, but I also look forward to the leaves changing colors and the chilly (but not freezing) sweater weather. All that to say, "Happy Fall!"

When first published in 1942, The Screwtape Letters brought immediate fame to a little known Oxford don whose field of study was medieval English literature. Over the past sixty years its wit and wisdom have made it one of C. S. Lewis' most widely read and influential works.

Fellowship for the Performing Arts has adapted and produced this best selling classic into a thoroughly engaging and entertaining theatrical production. After playing to sold out houses in New York City’s Theatre at St. Clement’s and in Washington D. C. at The Shakespeare Theatre Company’s Lansburgh Theatre, The Screwtape Letters will begin a limited engagement on Oct. 2 at the historic Mercury Theater in Chicago.

Profiles - You've heard a bit from Kelly and Heather this semester, but I asked if they would consider sharing how they came to Moody. I hope you'll be encouraged by these two amazing women and their stories, which are posted below.
