| Hiking Trip! As you probably know, Stanley is organizing a hiking trip this weekend. The plan is to go to the Hog Island Oyster Farm, then hit up the trail leading up to the Alamere Falls in Point Reyes. The plan is to leave here around 9:30 am. Please let him know if you're interested. | | |
| Request Some of you wanted the words to the song we sang on Friday. Here you go. If there's interest, I'll put up a recording so that you can relive the moment. :) We Are The Church I am the church. You are the church. We are the church together.
All who follow Jesus, all around the world, yes, we’re the church together.
The church is not a building, the church is not a steeple,
The church is not a resting place, the church is a people. We’re many kinds of people with many kinds of faces,
All colours and all ages too, from all times and places. And when the people gather, there’s singing and there’s praying,
There’s laughing and there’s crying sometimes, all of it saying: I count if I am ninety, or nine or just a baby;
There’s one thing I am sure about and I don’t mean maybe. | | |
| Update We've started meeting again! Come join us Friday nights at John's place on Judah. Leave a comment or email us if you want more information. | | |
| Also, going forward, this site will be under new management as we re-launch!

| Hello small group peeps!
It's been quite a while since we've
met, hasn't it? Feels like ages! Anyway, we've been pretty terrible
about communicating next steps for our group, so wanted to let everyone
know what was going on.
We're actually just around the corner from the beginning of
our small group term. We're going to have two small groups start
meeting on Friday, October 5th - 24/7 small group, under new
leadership, and a women's small group! Here's some quick detail:
- 24/7 small group - Alex Woo (alex@woohoopictures.com) and John Yasuda (jkyasuda@gmail.com
) are taking over as the new facilitators for 24/7, with a focus on
relevant, topical, foundational Bible studies. The new 24/7 will still
meet on Friday evenings, but location is changing to Yasuda's place in
the Inner Sunset.
- Women's group - Christina Park (christina.parkie@gmail.com) and Caroline Shou (caroline.shou@gmail.com)
will be facilitating a women's group, that's being spun out from what
was previously women's prayer group. They'll also be meeting on
Fridays, currently planned for the Cole Valley area.
Alex and Yasuda have begun reaching out to see if people
would like to serve as part of a formal "core" for 24/7, in helping
with logistics and building the small group. Parkie and Caroline have
been doing the same, with most of their core established. If you'd
like to make a commitment to help build out either of these two groups,
please contact them! I know if can be pretty overwhelming taking on
the responsibility of facilitating a small group and even just a little
help can make a big difference.
What will Jeff and I be up to? Jeff's going to take a break
from facilitating to figure out how he wants to serve longer term and
grow more in his personal walk. I'll likely be starting a third group
later in the year - my travel schedule for Oct will take me out of town
too many weekends to start sooner! There isn't really a co-facilitator
or viable location at this point, so it will likely be a smaller group
focused on the downtown area. A few people have expressed some
interest, so next steps are probably just to start meeting informally
for dinners and such. I'll also continue leading the Saturday morning
prayer meetings, which have been pretty much the highlight of my week!
Definitely come out if you can!
Now that you know what the next steps are for the group,
you're probably wondering how you should respond. For the women, it's
probably a tougher decision in having to choose between the co-ed
groups and a women's group. For all of us, I don't think there's
really a bad decision here. Ultimately, it's about prayerfully seeking
out opportunities to grow in your personal relationship with God. So make your decision and commitments based on how you feel you'll grown in your faith and how you'll be blessed so that you can be a blessing. Feel free to reach out to Alex and Yasuda, and Parkie and Caroline with any questions!
Peace out,
Jason
