I wonder if we really know our community? I wonder if we know the hot spots in terms of where people meet, where the issues are, what happens in particular places etc. If we wish to be a congregation who responds to the community needs, we need to know what these needs are and where we go to find them.
There is a workshop in the church next Tuesday (22nd) at 7.30 run by the Transformation Team of Faith in Community Scotland. I've been involved in designing a few workshops with them and one is about finding out about what's going on in the community. This is one we'd now like to try out and see what happens and if it helps. There may be a follow-up one a couple of weeks later.
So anyone willoing to be guinea pigs for this workshop and help the Transformation Team help others through this and other workshops? Please do some along at 7.30 so there are more than two of us!
