A message from the ASA

American Scientific Affiliation 2019

NewsNote | October 18, 2019

Dear Colleague,

Fall has arrived here in beautiful New England and the ASA office is busy as ever.

Now that the dust has settled from ASA 2019, planning for ASA 2020 at Point Loma Nazarene University has begun. Please mark your calendars now and plan to join us in picturesque San Diego!

In addition, we are delighted to announce a new student chapter at the University of Georgia. Stay tuned for an upcoming launch meeting in November.

Finally, we, along with John Wood, will be attending the theology symposium at Northeastern Seminary on October 26–27. The ASA/CSCA is co-sponsoring the event and we look forward to seeing you there. While in the area and on October 28, we are also delighted to host an ASA gathering at Cornell University.

Please check out this NewsNote for many exciting ASA happenings taking place around the U.S. and Canada.

Joyfully in Christ,

Leslie and Vicki
