City Arts Festival

This is our second year to host a children's booth at the City Arts Festival. City Arts is a fantastic celebration of Dallas artists, Dallas museums, good food, and general creative fun. Lots of Journeyers spent part of their weekend helping kids have some good clean fun at our bubble art booth. If you didn't get a chance to volunteer this year, mark next year on your calendar! We love being part of it, because it's a concrete way to encourage the arts, celebrate creativity, and serve our local community, all endeavors we believe are worth our efforts.

We Need Volunteers!

This weekend, June 14th and 15th Journey is hosting a booth for children at the Dallas City Arts Festival. This is a great event and we love being a part of it. It gives us a chance to get our name out into the community, plus the kids that come to the booth love it!

You can sign up for 1 or 2 hour shift by going HERE to our google doc sign up sheet.

Make sure you give yourself some time before or after your shift to walk around the Festival and see the other booths.

Contact Rhealyn with any questions.

See ya there!

News and Happenings around Journey

It has been a while with no posts... So here is a quick roundup of some things that have been going on or we have coming up:

-We are currently nearing the end of a sermon series called "Dissident Discipleship." We have had some great discussions about the ideas presented in THIS book. We are discussing and exploring what spirituality looks like when it imitates Jesus and is directed outward in service to the world, instead of inward on the self.

-Last Sunday we had the Ordination Service celebrating the ordination of Erin Babb, one of our community members and hospital chaplain.

-We are currently in the middle of selecting new (and returning) Elders and Leaders as we do each year. Stay tuned for more info on who our new Elders and Leaders will be.

-Public Theology is back and will begin discussing a new book. "The Fidelity of Betrayal: Towards a Church Beyond Belief" by Peter Rollins. You can find it HERE at Amazon. Public Theology meets at Blackfriar Pub (in uptown on McKinney ave.) Tuesdays at 7:30pm.

-Journey Anniversary service is coming up! We are 9 years old this year. June 29th we will have a special Journey Gathering. Stay after for a meal and a talent show. You don't want to miss this.
