Dear Ms Rauch,

Thank you again for your very helpful letters, information, and explanations of October 10,2017 and
November 30, 2017 correcting the text and reinstalling of the prayer bricks, YSC (YHWH School of
Christianity) donated for the I-house Patio.

Some other Cal Berkeley Alumni and I just had a wondelful trip together to Israel in March of this year. I
collected photos with former Dean Cheryl Resh, photos wrote up of the trip. It includes some detailed
thoughts on the history of Christian Zionism theology which is related to text on the bricks I have
donated. This information and prayer thoughts have been added to write ups of previous trips. I would
like to present these to the I-House library as my recollections of the last 10 years or so praying with
you all.

They contain discussion of how you can believe in Saints as a mathematical theologian, details of some
of the history of Christian Church along with Saint Andrew’s connections to it. Some ideas for future
research of mathematicians and computer scientists at Berkeley that might live in I-House in the areas
of category theory, network analysis of knowledge networks and the connection to U.S. Army war-
gaming and much more.

If a trip like this would be possible in the early fall of this year to talk with you all and if you like, pray
and discuss future donations of bricks, please write and let me know and I will begin making
arrangements for it.

Yours Sincerely,


Dr. Andrew W. Harrell
