Month: August 2020

We had a great first meeting! It was a little long because we had so much to cover, after being apart for the summer. A few notes:

• Kirsten is investigating T-shirts. Michele is reaching out to Spectrum.
• Our primary meeting activity will be discussing the Phoenix Affirmations. I don’t expect everyone to 100% agree with everything they say. In fact, the nature of progressive Christianity is that we avoid orthodoxy. But I do think that they are good discussion points.
• I mentioned a book that we could study, probably not this semester but in the future. The Shack has been made into a movie. I have been watching a series by the author on Amazon Prime called Restoring the Shack. There is also a deeper theological study out there that I have not yet read, The Shack Revisited.
• I received an email this week pointing to a list of ways to be an ally. Good reading.

Hope you can join us Thursday!

Welcome everyone to Fall 2020! When I posted about COVID-19, I had no idea we would still be under such severe restrictions now. I hope everyone is doing OK, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

This fall, we will be meeting in Library 202 at 12:30 pm on Thursdays. Given all of the restrictions, we won’t be providing food, but you are welcome to bring your lunch or a snack. Last year’s project was a success! Our flyer is posted at the Phelps County Sheriff’s Department. We need to come up with a new project and/or topic for this semester.

Our first meeting is this Thursday, August 27. Please join us as we try to map out our plans for the fall. Hope you can join us!
