Topic for today

[Vivian Secaida]

Dear small group, 

                 I was asked by Austin to help guide discussion today. As you know, we're talking about discipleship - this week I wanted to talk about taking risks. What is risky about the call to be a Christian? What have you risked to follow Jesus? What does Jesus call us to risk? How can you risk more? What is God calling you to risk in your life right now? How will you respond? 

Here is some scripture to ponder on before our meeting today:

Romans 12:2 ² Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."

Mathew 25: 34-36  ³⁴ “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. ³⁵ For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, ³⁶ I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

I am excited to see you all this evening! =)

 

Best,

Hey all -

I'm on a Midwestern work trip (it's cold!) so I won't be there tonight, but please discuss if this Tuesday, Nov 8, would be a feasible night for our group to provide food for youth club at Columbia Heights community center. I need to know ASAP so I can ask other groups.  Could be as easy as buying some chips or carrots, though some will need to be willing to provide something more substantial (lasagna, pasta bake, pizzas, etc).

Sarah, please poll the group and see if we can make this happen. I only got one response so far.

Many frigid Midwestern thank yous - Jodie

I just wanted to check if there was a consensus on bringing food for the Nov 8 youth club. Mary Katherine Gleissner sent me an email today asking if I could bring pizza, drinks, cookies and salad. Happy to do it, just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to duplicate efforts.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Mike!

Unfortunately there was no consensus during small group since it was only 6 of us that came and I am not sure how many of us remembered...maybe we can start a food thread?

Best,
