Introduction
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
- Philippians 3:13b-14
THE STORY THAT WE WRITE WITH OUR LIVES
We are a community of boomers, early retirees, and empty-nesters who want to make a difference for the sake of God’s Kingdom and for the flourishing of the world. We seek to energize and mobilize our generation to live lives of significant love, wise influence, and generous involvement. We envision this as a missional community, used by God.
If you identify with this stage of life and one or more of the above goals, please join us at our monthly gatherings!
EPIC Gathering for May 8th
Special Guest: Pastor Bruce Wall
Our EPIC gathering, scheduled for May 8, will be happening virtually. We will be using the new application called ZOOM to engage remotely from our individual homes.
Speaker: Pastor Bruce Wall, our long-time Dorchester-based friend and Christian leader, Pastor, radio and TV talk show host. Pastor Bruce will speak personally and pastorally about fear and faith during this pandemic, as well as challenge us to be salt and light as we emerge from quarantine. We will also have a few minutes to ask him questions.
EPIC newsletter subscribers, you will receive a Zoom invitation by Wednesday, May 6th via email. If you are not subscribed to the EPIC newsletter, you may do so below. Feel free to forward the email with the Zoom link to a friend who might be interested in participating.
Lastly, if you are interested, there will also be opportunity to stay an extra 15 minutes at 8pm for a “report back” from our Guatemala/Potter’s House EPIC Team.
EPIC moving forward: Our Steering Team is considering possible options for our Friday night, June 12th, Potluck and Praise evening. For now, hold the date and we will see what is possible.
MONTHLY GATHERINGS
Within each evening we have 3 foundational segments:
- COMMUNITY: build friendships over food, conversation, and shared experience
- INSPIRATION: inspire one another and be inspired through teaching from guest speakers
- INVOLVEMENT: collaborate in various ways to make a significant difference (compassion and justice issues, ministry opportunities, or a mix of other interests).
Future Schedule and Speakers for 2019-2020:
May 8: Bruce Wall
June 12: Praise Sing and Potluck
