On The Table

Hi church,

Sorry for the late notice, but...here's what we're gonna be up to this weekend. It's the last weekend of the month, so as usual, we will not be gathering for a worship service at Jammin' Java on Sunday. Normally we would be gathering instead for a service-worship project, but we had the opportunity last weekend to help Neishia, Xander, and Nicholas with their move (many thanks to the folks who could help!) But it also seems like it's time to get together and talk about this core part of our church: Giving to Needs Unmet - the times when we gather, led by our GNU Team, to serve, help, and bless friends old and new. As this is an 'open-source' group, we're keen to see how to continue to see everyone involved in this effort.

So please join us at Tina's and my house (13337 Feldman Pl., Herndon, VA, 20170) at 2pm on Sunday. In Jackie's words, we'll engage in a "conversation reviewing the history of where we've come, what we've tried, and opening up for honest conversation about people's ideas and thoughts about what has worked well and what could be improved - and then move toward a focused heart about what it is that we together want to do with the GNU part of the heart of our church."

Thanks, all - looking forward to this conversation about the giving heart of our community!

Peace,
Mike Croghan

P.S. - Looking ahead, next Sunday (October 5th), we'll be gathering for our annual church anniversary picnic and labyrinth service. It's almost certain that we'll be gathering at (actually, outside) the Church of the Holy Comforter in Vienna in the early afternoon - watch this space for details!
