Outreach Next Thursday the 16th!!
Hey everyone!
Mtm is a group that is centered around noticing
- noticing the wonder and goodness of God in everyday life, and then looking for ways to connect w Him in our everyday lives
and
- noticing the people around us - that they are hurting and broken just like we are, and yet that they are wonderful and amazingly made, just like we are - and looking for ways to reach out into their worlds and serve/love them well
We are trying to LIVE out a better way in this crazy world that is so consumed w getting more, being more, becoming more, achieving more, buying more, etc.
A part of that has always been that we try to serve - to love people w practical things.
But, we always try to serve people we know and in personal ways that grow our relationships - basically, our service is part of and an extension of, our noticing - we notice, we care, we love - many times with practical service (either personally, or as a group)
Over the years, this has taken the shape of many outreach projects - and this coming Thursday, the 16th, we will have another outreach.
These are super fun and you need to plan to be there.
This time, we will be working to clean up the yard of a friend of ours, Kathy, at her house:
738 Main St
Dayton, IN 47941.
This will begin at 6:30. We will meet at her house - and there will be dinner. We will finish when we finish, but i will be before dark.
We will be doing:
Trimming bushes, trees, etc - so we need loppers, trimmers, saws, ladders, tarps, pruners, step stools
Draining a water heater/checking it - hot water has a funny smell
Flower bed clean out, pull all weeds - so we need shovels, hand tools, gloves, weeding tools
Cutting down some small trees - rope, saws, maybe pick axe for stumps
Moving some stuff around in the house - need strong backs and arms
and anything else you can think we might need for these projects.
We really hope to see you there - it will be a great time.
in the meantime, keep noticing...

Tomorrow Night is Mtm!!
Hey everyone - we will be hanging out at McAllister Recreation Center- just off 20th and Schuyler Ave, Lafayette - from 645-800pm tomorrow night - the 2nd of August. It is always an awesome time to hang out, laugh, relax and continue to work at reorienting our thinking and our lives to a better way than just the usual "get more" "buy more" "achieve more" "be more" "have more" of our culture.
would love to see you there!
