Just got back from Fayetteville after taking my daughter to freshman orientation. Very impressed with the orientation staff, bent over backwards to inform us parents and build a sense of trust. My first visit to the campus and overall impression was fantastic. Feel she has made the right decision.

Please recommend churches in the area with strong student involvement. She would best fit into a non-denominational church though a denomination that fits the following criteria would be great as well. Strong biblical teaching focusing on the cross and grace (not into legalism) and a passionate worship experience. Strong missions minded church.

Any suggestions? We are from the Dallas area and don't have any connections there.

University Baptist maybe....but you said non-denominational so I'm not sure. The Grove may be one. I think they are non-denominational.

Thought I would drop back in and say she found a great church that she loves. New Heights.

New Heights Church

Can I brag on her a little? She made a 4.0 her first semester, LOVES U of Arkansas, Loves Fayetteville, loves being a Razorback. Almost winning this old Georgia native to pull for them. Well, not entirely, lol.

It's nice when folks come back for a "follow-up".

Sounds like your daughter has made the adjustment very well. 4.0!! That's awesome. I was never able to pull one of those off in my undergrad

thanks for the update. It is always great to hear back from people. So often they just post and run..You should be proud of her. Our granddauther 7 years ago was just like your daughter and from the Dallas area I will add. She fell in love with AR, did very well, convinced us to look at retiring here, we became Ravorback fans just like her and now, not only is she happily married, living just south of Fayetteville, her parents just sold their home and will be moving to Bella Vista in Feb. 10 years ago we would have laughed if someone suggested we might like AR and might think of living here..

If she convinces her younger brother to come up there (currently 10th grade) I would seriously consider relocating. That area reminds me so much more of Georgia than TX.... the scenery, the trees, the houses, the people... I think I could be really happy there.
