Why we're gathering at the new neighborhood brewery...

We are so excited about tomorrow's brunch gathering at Hyperion Brewing Co & hope you plan to be there!Just a few reminders/thoughts/things to consider...5 reasons why we are hosting brunch at Hyperion:1. It's a great way to be present & partnering with our neighbors.2. We get to support & encourage 2 local businesses & a local artist!3. To foster community & friendship.4. Because we love to eat together (maybe a little too much!).5. To share, give, laugh, imagine, savor, comfort & celebrate God's goodness (hmm...this is starting to sound a lot like practicing the way of Jesus).Things to consider doing:1. Be good hosts (this may mean making sure there is enough food before we get more or giving up a seat so others can have one).2. If you are able, give generously through tips or paying for someone else's brunch.3. Meet someone new (introverts, just one; extroverts, more than one :))4. Bring a hygiene or food pantry item for our JASMYN collection.5. Show up & pitch in where help is needed (**speaking of help, if anyone is able to help manage the electronic donations to cover brunch tomorrow, please let us know asap!**).And, one more word - yes, we are hosting brunch at a brewery, but like all of our gatherings, we promise to make this a safe & welcoming space for drinkers, non-drinkers, kids, Jesus followers, skeptics, those of other faith or those who are not sure where/if they fit in.Peace + love,Susan
