Countryside Community Church - Joy Luke Club

What do dragonflies have to do with Luke?  Find out this weekend!  Rev. Lea Marshall will be preaching this Sunday, 11/6, on Luke 6.  She’ll be focusing particularly on the opening verses, 1 – 16, and I understand she’ll be making a connection with dragonflies.  Why not prepare for Sunday by reading Luke 6 and watching the corresponding video commentary from “Roadside Attractions”?

Meanwhile, I (Eric) will be attending the Emerging Progressive Leaders conference, sponsored by the Plymouth Center for Progressive Christian Faith and the Beatitudes Society.  at Dunrovin Retreat Center outside Minneapolis.  The intent of the conference is to link “emerging” progressive leaders with established national leaders in a mentoring relationship that can help ensure future leadership in the progressive Christian movement.  This trip is a bit of a sentimental journey for me.  Three years ago I was invited to mentor “emerging” leaders at this conference and received my first phone call from Countryside Community Church while there!   Since there is scant cell reception at Dunrovin, however, the call went to voicemail, so I didn’t talk to anyone from Countryside until after my trip was over.
