Dear Discipleship Leaders of Christ Church,
We were blessed to have Dr. Cyndi Parker of Jerusalem University College with us via video on Sunday! If you missed her message “Spiced Wine & Stolen Water: Eating with Wisdom & Folly” based on Proverbs 9, you can view the video at www.Christchurchsl.org/sermons. The discussion guide for groups or for personal reflections is also attached here.
Do you have questions on how best to do online meetings or hybrid online and in person meetings for your groups? Please let me know so that I can connect you with people who have found ways to navigate the technological hurdles! While streaming online videos seem to work a lot easier over zoom (or other video meeting platforms), there are some tips and tricks for using DVD based curriculum over zoom that may be of help to you. Also, the director of operations at Christ Church, Roland Huysman, has acquired equipment (onsite laptops, camera, mics etc.) that you can borrow for onsite hybrid meetings at church. Please let me know if you would like to schedule onsite meetings.
Would your group members like an opportunity to serve outdoors in the Trunk or Treat event at Christ Church on Oct 31? More info is available athttps://www.christchurchsl.org/event/trunk-or-treat-2/. Please share the information with your groups and list Sarah Stewart (sarahs@christchurchsl.org) as the staff contact in case any would like to help with sponsoring a decorated trunk! Cute, clever or not-too-scary costumes are welcome! Going as a Biblical character just might help you score some free candy! They currently have 22 trunks so far but would welcome another trunk for your group!
Peace and Grace,
Dan Conway
Pastor of Discipleship & Outreach
