Poll on women’s fellowship nights
Posted by
OK, some of you may cringe at the “christianese” sounding title of the post, but I wrote “fellowship” on purpose: I think we need to move the format into a more structured shared prayer time. Hopefully I am not alone in this thought.
On the scheduling: How would you all feel about meeting more frequently, say, every 2 weeks? I would like to keep it on a weekday since ppl are busy on weekends.
On where to have it: I would like to have it at someone’s house, which means ppl need to volunteer to host. This means YOU! You wouldn’t have to provide dinner, or even your presence technically (although that would be preferred). Also, anyone who wants to help me with providing dinner to a half dozen ppl would be appreciated!
On the content: As I said, shared prayer time is good, however there may be interest in a women’s study of some sort. I personally am not sure if we are at that point yet, or whether ppl would prefer a coed study. But anyway, I am bringing this to the floor. If you have a particular book to pitch, let’s hear it!
I am happy you’re still around (even if I haven’t seen much of you)!
I would love to spend more time with the wonderful women of holy grounds (and friends once or twice removed ). I like the idea of twice a month and agree will probably have the first few more about “scratching below the surface” and seeing where the Spirit moves up. I’m always up for hosting as long as there are travelers willing to brave the traffic to get here. I have no problem getting to know the gentleman of holy grounds either but would like to have a girls only time maybe once a month. No offense boys, but you probably wouldn’t want to hear the conversation anyways.. ;o)
I’d be happy to host if Old Town is a good, central location. At this point, Wednesday or Thursday would work well for me. I also second Jen’s thoughts in that it would be nice if it were a girls only group. We get plenty of time with the boys
Sorry that I’m late to respond — still catching up after being out of town for a few days!
I’m also happy to host. I do try to keep Wednesday as “date night” with the husband (it’s his night off), but I’m generally pretty flexible for scheduling these on weeknights. We live just a few minutes south of Old Town near the Telegraph Road interchange.
I think meeting 1-2 times per month is reasonable, and I think the direction Karen and Jen are suggesting is a good one — let’s get our gatherings started and see where we end up as time goes on.
I’m looking forward to our fellowship time!
