Focal Point

Every week, Campus Crusade for Christ meets up in Pruis Hall for their weekly meeting where they do several activities. The members come together for fellowship, which is a time for them to share their spiritual "status". Basically where they are in their relationship with God. After this short period of fellowship, everybody will sit down, and then some staff members or prominent members of Cru will make some announcements about the going-ons in Cru. Then they will either introduce the Praise Band, and start worship, or they will introduce the speaker for the night, and then do worship. Sometimes the Praise Band goes first and sometimes the speaker gives his sermon first. Either way, they both happen. After both of these activities occur, the night is almost over, and another round of announcements are all that is left before the meeting ends ,and then members say goodbye to one another and go home. I know more about what goes on and why it goes on because of my perspective and prior knowledge and experience with Christian organizations.  For example, before I went to the weekly meeting at Pruis Hall, I was expecting at least a time of worship with a Praise Band and also a message from a speaker.
