September Sessions

September was a busy month for Missio Dei Church. To bring you up to date (and to give you an excuse as to why I haven't posted anything for nearly 7 weeks), here's what's been happening.
1. We've moved into our new building and I have been praying through and writing out a theology of ministry to "walk-ins."
2. We've nearly doubled in attendance at our Sunday morning gatherings (around 80 or so adults in worship gathering)
3. We have been enfolding our people into community groups (60 adults committed and 5 groups around the city).
4. We did a four part series called "The Space Between" exploring our experience from the tree in the garden at Eden to the tree in the city of God.
5. We conducted a Free "Sale," which was a huge yard sale where we gave everything away for free to be a blessing to the working folks in the neighborhoods around our building. A tremendous success.
6. We conducted a baptism and baby dedication.
7. We are organizing a river clean up for this weekend and have a speaker from the Dept. of Jusice to present his work with the International Justice Mission at UNCA


It's been a busy month.
