Thursday Dinner this Week!

Posted 102 days ago ago by Marriage and Family

Hello everyone! 
We are so excited to see everyone again this week!  Mr. Kautzi's birthday is coming up so we are having his favorite dinner: Breakfast for Dinner!  Sign up here.

 
We will be at the Cacy's again (directions and address here) from 6:30-8:30ish.  Dinner at 7:00, Community time at 8:00.

This week, because it is the month of love, we will be talking about what makes us feel loved.  There is a book I'm sure many of you have heard of called The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman.  He basically says that people have different ways they communicate love and if you and your spouse or friends or kids or family have different love languages, you may all be trying your best to love someone well and simply speaking a foreign language to them!  

Here are the 5 love languages:
- Physical Touch
- Acts of Service
- Words of Affirmation
- Gifts
- Quality Time

If you want to take a quick quiz and read a bit about your primary love language, click here. (there's an option to have your quiz emailed to you at the beginning.  if you'd rather not put in your email, you can just click "skip this step.")

Come ready to share what you feel like your top two love languages are and how that manifests in your life.  I took the quiz and was surprised by how my answers have changed in the last few years!  Hmm...what's changed in my life in the last two years? (cough-Lila-cough, cough) You might be surprised, too!

See you all Thursday!

Prayer this Thursday

Posted 137 days ago ago by Marriage and Family

Dear Friends,
   I hope you are aware that Gathering Network is moving to a new location this Sunday.  The leadership team has asked for extra prayer during this transition and we would like you to join us this Thursday  1/5/12 at the Cacy home to do that.   This meeting won't replace our monthly food and fellowship time (which is the next week and Kelsey will be sending an email later about that!)  We won't be having any food, so there isn't anything to sign up to bring.  Just bring your Bible, yourself and anyone else who might like to come!

 We will be spending some time reading Scripture together that magnifies the character and acts of God and praying together for the Celebration service move, our Missional Community, and anything else that is on our minds and hearts.  Please join us Thursday from 7-9pm at the Cacy House 7051 W. 164th Ter, Stilwell KS 66085!  Call or email if you have any questions.

Missional Community THIS THURSDAY!

Posted 222 days ago ago by Marriage and Family

Hey everyone! 
We are back on after our break last month so join us at the Cacy's between 6:30 and 7:00.  Please sign up for food here.

A few changes to announce:

- We will only be meeting 2nd Thursdays as a large group so please prioritize those Thursday nights.

- 4th Thursdays we will be meeting in smaller groups in different people's homes.

- We will be sending these emails through the Gathering's CCB from now on, so make sure you keep your information up-to-date so you can continue receiving the emails.

- We are going to be making a habit of spending some intentional time together on the back half of our Thursday dinners.  This will be a time to connect with one another, keep up-to-date with things going on in each other's lives, learn how support one another well, as well as a place for announcements and other information.

Here's the plan for the night:
Come between 6:30 and 7:00
Eat at 7:00-8:00
Community time 8:00-8:30ish

Let me know if you have any questions!  

See you Thursday!

Kelsey

Posted 238 days ago ago by Marriage and Family

  4. numbers

logooh and there should be some images that come through and what not cuz its cool like that.  you know...


and some sum things up...some filler text:

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
