To reiterate, anyone on the list can send Email to
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:Seekers@lists.burkhead.org">Seekers@lists.burkhead.org</a> 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. ;-) )<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">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. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">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 <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">process</span></b> 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.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">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.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
