ReSTART

So I've done a poor job in the last year of keeping the conversation going. Mainly because I was so burned out trying to do too many things. Sorry everyone that has been waiting for some gatherings!

In September 2010 on the 13th at 8 pm in Falls Church, VA, we're going to kick-off our ReStart! I'll be working to line up some presenters to share stories, theology, and conversation. I'll post the list as it becomes a reality. Stay tuned!

Sept. NoVA Emergent Cohort Gathering

Hey Everyone,

So we've had some really great discussions the last couple months and have seen some new faces and old friends.

This month, Mike Croghan will lead us into the world of sound bites as he shares a bit about the upcoming October Christianity 21 Conference in Minneapolis. 23 female theologians, speakers, pastors, and presenters will gather to share and engage participants in holistic, communal, and innovative experiences and discussions/presentations. The website for Christianity 21 is: http://christianity21.com/

We'll gather at the following place on Monday, September 7 at 8 pm:

(Look for the "Cohort" sign if you're new - usually sitting at the tall tables near the entrance)
Dogwood Tavern
132 West Broad Street
Falls Church, VA

Can't wait to see you all and enjoy the evening together.

Cheers,
Tom Lynch

July Cohort Gathering

Hey Everyone,

At our next meeting I propose we do the following:

1) Meet and Greet for new visitors (Let's make a push to have some new friends join us...spread the word and invite some people or get reconnected)

Let me know how many people you will bring with you that are interested in having some good conversation.

2) Talk church planting. I'm going to get together sometime in the near future with some folks from the DC Cohort and would love to be able to share some thoughts from one of our meetings.

Our gathering information is same as last month (plenty of parking behind tavern):

Monday, July 6 @ 8 pm (Look for the "Cohort" sign if you're new)
Dogwood Tavern
132 West Broad Street
Falls Church, VA

See you all soon.

Peace,

Tom Lynch

June NoVA Cohort Meeting

Greetings Cohorters?!,

So my wife and I leave for Italy tomorrow and I wanted to be sure to get a note out to all of you about the June gathering. Can one of you send the "reply all" reminder the Saturday or Sunday before? Any volunteers?

I've resigned my "3rd job" and will be using some of that thought energy on our cohort gatherings. At our next meeting I propose we do the following:

1) Meet and Greet for new visitors (Let's make a push to have some new friends join us...spread the word and invite some people or get reconnected)
2) Decide a gathering format for the next 4 months

I personally would love to get to know some of you better and hope we can connect on a more significant level.

Our gathering information is as follows:

Monday, June 1 @ 8 pm (Look for the "Cohort" sign if you're new)
Dogwood Tavern
132 West Broad Street
Falls Church, VA

See you all soon.

Grace and mercy,

Tom Lynch
