ISI kicked off the school year with a fantastic Friday Connect. International graduate students packed into Bob and Carrie’s big living room as we kicked off with a round of fun icebreaker questions to a hot, home-cooked dinner to a fireside chat about a passage of the Bible, forging new friendships.

We concluded with a celebration of two September 8th birthdays (!) with a home-baked cake, and the joy was contagious! 🎉🎂

As we wrap up our first Friday Connect, we look forward to an amazing year ahead with new friendships made and many more celebrations! 🌟📚
