Hello, Church--
We're gathering for our final January meeting at
Jammin' Java this Sunday at 10am. Mike (myself) and Mike (the other Mike) will be teaming up with world-renown insight-giver
Rob Bell in a consideration of 'anger'. So bring your anger (of whatever kind) and let's talk about how our anger leads us toward and away from God.
Next weekend, we'll have a couple of chances to get together to party and dream:
On Saturday, January 23, we're holding our held-over Christmas party at the
Railroad Museum. The Snowpocalypse nixed our first effort, but it won't happen again! And yes, we'll still be eating chili and building gingerbread houses-- just consider it 'Christmas in January', okay? Bring your favorite chili, or just an appetite. We'll start setting up at 2:30, and finish cleaning up by 6:30.
The next day, we'll be having a Congregational Meeting to collaborate on our ongoing efforts to discern the next concerted initiative of the church. If you haven't been contacted by a member of our Next Steps Team, then please let Liz, Amy, Jackie, Erin, Mike or Mike know what you see ahead for us. And if you'd like to host our merry bunch for the meeting that day, then let us know that, too!
Later,
Mike Stavlund
