The Wesley Foundation at Stephen F. Austin State University did a fun thing for Night of the Living Dead Christian this year!
They were planning to do a study of the book on campus, so to advertise for the study, they dressed up as zombies (and a vampire) and went out on campus, inviting people to sign up for the study in exchange for a chance to win a copy of the book in a raffle.
It sounds like they had a great time, and a good turnout for reading the book together!
Here are some pictures sent in by Amanda Mauldin, one of the Wesley Foundation staff:

| Undead handing out fliers for a book study. Don't see that every day. |
 |
| As you can see, people felt excited to sign up when encouraged by zombies. |
 |
| Red shirts are very enticing for vampires. |

I spoke at the Wesley Foundation retreat this spring. We had a great time.
See if you can find me in the picture. |

The thing about being a zombie is that whatever you're wearing, that's your only outfit forever.
It's best if you can go casual and formal simultaneously like this gentleman here. |
 |
| So happy to be a zombie. |
 |
| On further examination, this zombie has two right hands. Amazing! |
I really enjoyed spending time with the Wesley Foundation, their ministers as well as their students. We had a great time at their retreat, and (bonus) since it's primarily Methodists, we never had to talk about Calvinism or whether women are allowed to do ministry. Nice!
