Hi everyone!
Hope this cloudy Sunday is good for you!
When i consider my life, i realize that i have so super much to be thankful for, and yet, many times, i find myself focusing on the things that aren't going right, the problems, the issues, the fears, the hurts, the wrongs, the insecurities - and before i know it, these are sucking away at my joy.
I hate it.
When i notice the wonder around me, the beauty of the world, the goodness of life and breath, how remarkable the gift of each moment is; When i notice how amazing a God must be to create all this and to love so much to give such simple wonder; When i notice how broken i have been and how much healing and good has come to my life; When i notice the bondage of my past and the freedom of my present, i begin to want to dance, to shout, to laugh, to run (except for an old arthritic knee), to share of this wonder of noticing with the people around me. I begin to touch something More - something other than the usual of this messed up culture we live in.
This is what More than more is all about.
We are tired of the usual more of this world. We seek after a God of More - we choose to notice - we choose to invite this God of wonder into the everyday moments of our lives and live lives of gratitude, noticing people and sharing of the goodness of life with them. Daring to risk, to set aside the ease and comfort of our lives to care about someone else - to share of this goodness w them - and we choose to pursue this together, like a family that we choose.
More than more is always fun. It always has some laughter and some goodness and some noticing. More than more is always a place to hang w some people who can care about you just because - not because of what they can get from you.
We hope you will join us - there is fee, no requirement, no social class or norm, no age group, no dress code - we will gladly provide care for your kids - and we look forward to hanging out for a bit, hoping to help each other become.
Thursday, the 12th of September, from 6:45-8:00pm, we will be gathering at McAllister recreation center, just off 20th and Schuyler ave, in Lafayette. Hope to see you there!

Outreach in Lafayette Next Thursday
Hey guys!
Next Thursday, the 15th of August, we will be having an outreach here in town. We will be moving Barbie across town and so we need all the help we can get!! Please plan to join us! Kids are welcome but there will not be organized childcare. The good news is that at the place she is moving from, there is a lot of room for kids to play and enjoy.
This time we will be gathering at the place she will be moving from:
It is Ty and Marcie's house. To get there, go on us 231 toward Crawfordsville. Turn right on 400S, drive down to the line of mailboxes and turn right on the long drive and go to where you see the trailer being loaded (or ready to be, depending on when you get there) - I types this into apple maps and got the right place:
1216 W 400 S, Lafayette
We will meet at 6:30pm and go from there.
We will be having Bruno's for dinner and enjoying time together.
Hope to see you all there!
