Organic Workers' Training 2010

Last night was the first actual night of training for OWT. We had a HUGE turn-out. There was a great spirit shared among everyone. We went through Mark 4 - parable of the soils - and then looked at the DNA of the church. We also committed to doing three things: 1) read the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke for the month of February, focusing specifically on what Jesus DOES and where he does it; 2) read the essays posted at http://owt7.blogspot.com and discuss at a scheduled check point with others from the training; 3) ask 10 people a simple question: "When you hear the name Jesus, what do you think? Who is Jesus to you?"

Everyone was also asked to begin writing or compiling their story of Jesus' intervention and ongoing presence in their lives.

I know, pretty cool, yeah?

More updates soon to come.

Peace.
