[Seekers] [Fwd: Seekers Class Mission Outreach Proposal]

[Lyle Greg Lisle]

To reiterate, anyone on the list can send Email to 
Seekers at lists.burkhead.org and have it delivered to the whole list.  
Restrictions include; you must be on the list, there is a max size of 
40KByte and don't have too many addresses in the "to" field.  (I'm not 
sure how many is too many)  If the address you are sending from is not 
on the list, I can fix it so that it works anyway.  (at least now that 
I'm getting the admin warning again. ;-) )

Greg,

 

Will you please send this out to the Seekers class?  Thanks, and Happy 
New Year!

 

Seekers,

 

Since it was my turn to teach this past Sunday, I passed out the 
attached outline after the end of the lesson.  As I tried to explain to 
the members who were present, I am putting this forward as an idea for 
how our class might explore the possibility of adopting some sort of 
mission or outreach project. 

 

I am not proposing what the project should or shouldn't be, or even 
whether we should do a project, whatever it is.  I am proposing a 
*process* to take us from off-and-on, vague class discussions about the 
need to "do something", to a point where we can perhaps make an informed 
decision about actually doing something.  When we have had those good 
discussions in the past, we've never gotten to the point of being able 
to identify the specific needs or commitments necessary to do whatever 
it was, so it was difficult to get class members excited.  It occurred 
to me that maybe we needed some sort of framework or recipe to take us 
to the next level.

 

If the class is in favor of this idea, I will be happy to organize a 
task force to do the leg-work required to come back to the class at 
various intervals to make presentations and ask for decisions.  As you 
can see, the outline I've developed has several points for class review 
and input.  I feel strongly that this needs to be a group effort.  I 
will gladly facilitate the process, but our whole class needs to decide 
whether we want to do something like this or not.

 

I welcome your thoughts, comments, suggestions, changes, etc.  Thanks!
