What a wonderful gathering ~ Amen!
Here are the assignments as recorded by the dancing Keeper of Assignments, ect.
- Betsy will send the new folks email to Shannon, the Distribution List Keeper. done
- Kent will send the weekly agenda to me to distribute with the assignments. (so folks who didn't make the meeting can see what they missed) :) done
- Emily will post this email or the contents and attachments to the blog. She also wants to think about this a bit....(I got the impression that this idea is somewhat "old fashioned" and not really what a blog is all about)
- Kent will be signing pomegranates at a Book Party, May 15? I don't make these up ~ I just report 'em.
- Kelly will (tell) ask David if they can host our meeting, Memorial Day weekend, May 29. Kent volunteered their home as an alternative...as did the Hooey's who volunteered my home as a third alternate.
- Theresa will coordinate our May 1, Service at OHC event.
- Tim will be sending out an email to the group with all the details for our next Theodore Judah Community dinner, this Friday, April 8. Tim, don't forget to include the school's address and attach the T.J. Workday flyer to your email. thanks
- Diane volunteered to be in charge of decorations for the T.J.C dinner. (see item 7 above)

Very helpful... not at all old fashion.
ReplyDeleteIs this where we discuss things? I'm excited to have found the blog, now my deficiency will be how to use it. Anyway, at the end of Ch. 3 in Untamed, a suggested reading is the book of Acts. I've been making my way through and am in ch. 8 and something that has always had me wondering in my walk is that I, too, was baptized, but unlike here, don't know that I ever experienced being baptized by the Holy Spirit. It sounds like there was no question as to whether it was happening, in fact, in verse 14-16 it says, "For He (the Holy Spirit) had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." I wonder if that's me, too? I've tried to live 'in the Spirit' but wonder whose spirit I'm living by--my own or the Holy Spirit. I give credit to the 'Spirit' moving in situations, but I've never had an experience even mildly comparative to the apostles experience, or even Al's experience in the book. Any thoughts? --Kelly
