Discussion
A good deal of discussion and a decision was made to begin rotating our monthly meetings from place to place. The intent is NOT to add a burden to anyone to have to plan another event...but rather to meet for a light lunch and fellowship, with the focus of the meeting being on the host leader, their church/organization. The host leader could share highlights of present activities, upcoming activities/events, concerns, and need for prayers.
The host leader, their church/organization would be the prayer focus that particular day and throughout the upcoming month and until the next meeting.
We would continue to meet on the 3rd Thursdays of each month at 12 noon.
The issue of what to do for lunch was discussed with no final solution. Ideas ranged from ordering from Subway, a local pizza place, or perhaps even from Italia Gardens... (if we could all agree on what to order). An R.S.V.P. email could be sent out prior to the meeting for a head count.
Other leaders/churches/organizations can be added as we move forward.
