On The Table

The Weekly Announcement of Common Table Church

Monday, May 7, 2007

 

May 7 through 13

Blooms: a visual picture of beauty and emergence and hope. Jackie and Mike got this short series off to great start this week with their thoughts about kids, flowers, spiders and the weak and pervasive forces of God. This Sunday, in his Common Table debut, Ken will be leading us as we consider the relationship between flowers and fruit, in the physical world and spiritual one. As usual, we'll meet at Jammin Java at 10:00 AM.

Following the service, and after we grab something to eat, the Design Team will be meeting to brainstorm and plan for our June and July services. We'll gather at the Croghan/Driskell home around 1:00 and plan to wrap up by 3:30. This is our chance to collectively explore our upcoming services -- to inspire and be inspired by one another -- so if you have been thinking about getting more involved in Sunday mornings but didn't know how, definitely plan to join us!

And speaking of the Croghan/Driskells, we have several events on the horizon related to Mike and/or Tina. First, after a several week process of nomination and confirmation by our congregation, we are excited to welcome Mike as the newest member of our Leadership Team. We plan to take a few minutes during the service this week to commission and pray for the team, so plan to join us for that. Second, in anticipation of their upcoming move to Herndon, Mike and Tina are hosting a "Come get our stuff" event this Saturday afternoon. They have lots of books, tools and household items to give away, so plan to swing by on Saturday and see what treasures you can find. Finally, Mike and Tina are looking for help during their actual move on May 26th - mark your calendars now and start looking forward to a steak reward!

Enjoy the rest of your week,

Deanna

April 30 through May 6

Hey, Church--

The Design Team, who do their best to lead us toward an experience of God most Sunday mornings, are having a couple of upcoming meetings.

This Thursday at 7pm, they'll be meeting at Liz's home to work on some short-term planning for May services.

Next Sunday afternoon, May 13, they'll be gathering with a wider group of people to do some long-range, creative brainstorming about ideas for the summer ('fire' in June, and 'short films' to follow). Keep an eye out for more details on this meeting, and please plan to join us-- absolutely everyone is welcome and encouraged to come!

This Sunday, May 6, we'll be gathering at Jammin Java to kick off our 'Blooms' series, as we consider the power and weakness, and the hope and heartbreak, found in simple flowers. Jackie and I have been collaborating on this project, and I'm really excited about it.

Hope to see you soon,
Mike

P.S. By 'most Sunday mornings', I mean to say that we don't meet for worship at Jammin' Java each and every week, not that Design Teamers are selective or in any way lax about their intention or execution of leading us toward an experience of God each and every opportunity they get. ;-)
