COTF @ Cohoons

This Sunday, the Cohoons will be hosting a celebration of the faithful at our house from 5-7 pm. With this being a time of transition or change for so many of us, we thought it would be nice to really just spend time enjoying this wonderful community we have, and share in communion and a meal. 

We look forward to a time of catching up, sharing, and enjoying one another's company around the dinner table. Please comment with what you would like to bring as a dish to share. We will plan on making a big pot of soup. If someone would like to bring communion items, let me know, or I can pick them up.

Email for directions.

Some interesting things

Hello everyone -

It was good to see a few of you yesterday at Global Gallery.

By request, here are a few items I've mentioned to a few of you lately.

Brene' Brown's TED talks and profile:

The You Made it Weird podcast interview of Rob Bell:

Yesterday a few of us discussed missing the conversation that used to happen more regularly through the blog and committed to putting more effort into that again.  So if you've got thoughts on any of these things, or another conversation you'd like to start, let us know!

Gathering on Oct 13

Hello, friends!

The calendar says we're meeting this Sunday from 4-6pm at Global Gallery / the park. There's a chance of rain, so I'm guessing the coffee shop is the safest bet, though I'm sure we can be flexible.

I was thinking about this video of Brene Brown, author of Daring Greatly and of TED talk fame, this week. I thought maybe we could start discussion here. It's a short video, but it touches on several issues so there are lots of potential jumping off points.

As always, if you've got something else on your mind, bring it along and speak up.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone after last week's hiatus.
