Two weeks ago Shoal Creek tried out an "All-Family" service in place of our normally adult-targeted service. The controlled chaos can't be described, only witnessed!
Coming out of that Sunday, we wondered, "Could there be a more regular place at Shoal Creek for more "all-family" type gatherings such as this? Would families take advantage of programs and events that were designed to engage the whole family's spiritual journey at the same time? What might happen in a family's spiritual journey if we designed gatherings for the family to grow closer to God together, instead of always splitting them up?"
Have you ever wondered the same thing? Or, if you were able to experience our All-Family service from 8/21, did you come away from it wanting more opportunities to grow closer to God with those you call family?
Shoal Creek is looking for and gathering people who are intrigued by the thought of providing more gatherings and services similar to the 8/21 All-Family service. We're searching for people who are interested in working with others to create spaces for families to journey towards God together.
Might that be you? Might coming to a Sept 11th brainstorming/planning meeting be a next step for your family's spiritual journey?
Please think about it, because we believe that there are families out there looking for a place to learn how to do "family", and Shoal Creek may be the place God is leading them to find. Having more regular All-Family gatherings could be the "hook" that leads them to a place where God can intersect their lives, and you and your family could be a part of making that happen.
If you can't make the Sept 11th brainstorming/planning meeting but are still interested in being a part of this, please contact me and let me know.
