What Is VP To You?

So it's been almost a year since we fired this thing up. 
One snowy night in March, we met at Brad & Liz's apartment. 
We talked about the possibility of meeting on a steady 
schedule and for the most part, everyone was in. All of us 
were connected with IAWAH and yet somehow 
disconnected at the same time. In september, we fired things 
up and went for a weekly flow. We wanted God to be the 
leader and we wanted to be realistic in our approach. We
wanted old and young people to be involved and for it to 
look like a family. We wanted to do things in the city of 
Ottawa and help others in this community.

Things have changed. People have come and gone and newer 
people have done the same. A lot of us are unsure about 
what this thing is and what it needs to be. Some people are 
strong with their vision but unsure as to how to carry that 
out. Some want it to look like a bible study while others 
want it to look more like a homeless mission. Some think
it can be both and more.

If it's supposed to happen and grow, it will happen and grow.

What do you think? 

Let's hear some thoughts.

The Plan for Sunday Feb 8th

Alright Villagers - Let's get villaging.

So the plan (tentatively) for sunday is a bit of a canal-skate in
the goodness of Winterlude. I believe Marc-Andre is heading 
this up so contact mablier@gmail.com with any queries you
may have.

I don't think I'll be able to be there as there is a potential
Graven practice on sunday but more to come on that in the
next day or so.

Things have been wild, wacky and unplanned lately and
I'm sorry for that. Kathleen has done a great job as admin
but she (and everyone else) has been mega busy as of
late.

Let's keep hope alive...and keep the chords of community
tuned.
