Here’s the program from tonight’s gathering:

Introducing > Adams Avenue Crossing

• Dec. 1, 2009 > Café Cabaret, Normal Heights, Mid-City San Diego

6 p.m. > Welcome

6:20 > TC: “Ministry of Presence”

• Sum: Call us a ministry of presence. We’re a walking church. A ministry of walking. Look at Jesus … that’s what he did … he walked all over the place …
• Conversation idea: Find someone you don’t know and maybe reflect on this ministry of presence idea,  share your own story, or how God is working in your life at this time.

6:40 > Table Talk: A chat about some of our activities

7 > TC: “Healing of the Nations”

• Sum: Rejoice in God and in life … by responding in kind. Be like God. Care about people and justice. Fight the battles that matter. Serve God.

• Conversation idea: How are we bringing heaven to earth? How can we bring the presence of God into our neighborhoods?

7:20 > Bub plays 2 songs inspired by AAC

7:45 > TC: “They Will Know By Our Fruit”

• Sum: Envisioning the church as a presence in the neighborhood. You go to the restaurants and there are people there, disciples of Jesus, real apprentices showing the image of the God who is loving and compassionate, servant to all … people of God walking the streets and loving the unloved, picking up trash, tutoring children, carrying the burden of the oppressed or forgotten.
• Three ideas: Join us, partner with us, be a ministry of presence where you are.
