First Meetings!

Dear Friends,

Our first meeting has just taken place! Gathering in The Stupe Grill, the on-campus restaurant, we inaugurated rebuilding eden. The conversation tonight was just over the introduction of Everything Must Change.

Some of the questions raised were: "What does it mean to be moved by the Spirit?", "How can we be hopeful in the world around us?", "What gives meaning?", and my personal favorite, "So what?" This last question sparked some great conversation about how we can begin to practically implement what we learn both through EMC and Scripture.

Thanks all for coming out, and remember we are meeting next week to continue our reading, chapters 2-5 (Part One). We will meet at 12:30 at SAGA, probably in the back section. After lunch we will be watching Blood Diamond, probably back at Fischer.

I am really looking forward to dialoguing with you all! May the Lord bless you and keep you.

Following Christ,

Jeremy

One thing I would like mark down here as well, so we don't forget, is Fridays with Gary United in Hubble Park, or perhaps the option of going by ourselves sometime to Chicago and implementing what we talked about: starting conversations with people and essentially just acknowledging their existence, instead of ignoring them or mindlessly dropping money into a cup. I know you all probably didn't need a reminder, but I supposed I'd reiterate this for myself as well as anyone else who has a terrible memory.

Eagerly awaiting the revolution,
