<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">=== (1) Tech Catholic Talk ===<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“Friends, Real Friends, and Friendship in Christ” Friends are important to our lives, not just because we are social beings that need friends, but also because our friendships often deeply affect us on a number of levels. Friends can be
good for us or bad for us or a mixture and good or bad for us—and we for them. Fr. Moloney will give a talk on how to think about our friends from a philosophical and Catholic perspective—what kinds of people ought to be our friends, what different degrees
of friendship there are, how we might make the right type of friends, and what it means when Jesus calls the apostles (and by extension all Christians) His friends (Jn 15:14-5). Happening Monday, Nov. 27 at 8:15 in the MDR. Pizza will be served.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">=== (2) Elections ===<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On Sunday, December 10 at 11:30am in the Small Dining Room in W11, we'll have our semester elections for positions on the TCC Council. Every position will be up for re-election this semester. If you're interested in getting more involved,
volunteering, or taking on a leadership role in the TCC, please contact the Ben Myers (<a href="mailto:bmyers@mit.edu">bmyers@mit.edu</a>) and plan to be at the meeting on December 10.<o:p></o:p></p>

e-books. (Think of it as a Catholic version of Amazon Prime). To register for free, go to https:/formed.org/home?code=J8VGDK and enter your email.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">=== (5) Melchizedek Group for Priestly Vocations ===<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Fr. Moloney will lead a reading and discussion group about the nature of the priestly vocation and how to discern if God is calling us to the “ancient order of Melchizedek” (Heb. 5:6, 7:17).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Meeting times Mondays at 3:45pm in W20-450<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">To attend doesn’t mean that you are thinking about entering the seminary, or even that you’re not dating. It can simply mean that you’re interested in supporting others think about the priesthood.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Fr. Moloney will be offering a class in the fundamentals of the Catholic faith that will cover everything from the Trinity to Church history to the Sacraments, prayer, and the moral life. It is meant to be both
a high-level introduction to the faith appropriate for interested non-Catholics, and a serious review of the faith for those who are Catholics. It is required for those who want to enter the Church. Classes will be held at 2:45pm on Sundays in W11/Small Dining
Room. For more info contact (<a href="https://owa.exchange.mit.edu/owa/redir.aspx?C=2I94I1wk4TuDSL_iG9BC5e5lz5s3wJUG4QKQfSAQTx74QsjKTSnVCA..&URL=mailto%3admoloney%40mit.edu" target="_blank">dmoloney@mit.edu</a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
