From Brooks Barrick

By the way if you want to pray for the GA....pray for the committee I am chairing. I am the chair of the Local Area Missions Committee. We are busy planning meaningful experiences for the many volunteers coming from the U.S. and Canada. And our hope is that we will leave a very positive footprint on Indianapolis that will last long after the folks go back home.
Encourage your folks to volunteers and obviously to come to GA.
Peace,
Brooks


From Guido
Merci Beau Coup, Brooks y Muchas Gracias

Local area missions maybe very important for us to reach out into the Indy community and bring in the folks who are in need of the table. Outside of the local church, this could be the most important way for Disciples to witness the grace, love, and compassion of Jesus to the Indy community.

Pray that Brooks will be bold in her vision.
Pray that the folks of vision and passion wind up with her working together in concert.
Pray that they get a grand BHAG and that it keeps them up at night. Big Hairy Audacious Goal that comes from a Bigger Hairier more Audacious God.
Pray that youth groups and many adults will be stirred to build upon the work that Brooks and her team has laid out.

Fearless Joy,
Guido
