Detroit Villages Community Gathering

Jan 28 2012 - 7:00pm - 9:00pm

Join us for this monthly gathering, new this year with food, fellowship, local musicians and some visual prayers for our city and neighborhoods.  

WHERE:  Kresge Hall at Metro UMC, 8000 Woodward Ave

WHEN:  Saturday, January 28th, 7pm 

WHAT:  Bring some food, share in a meal, hear some good music and a good word, pray for one another.

This year we are interested in having communities bring the best of what they do to these gatherings, so along with a potluck dish we're hoping that groups step up to help with the following pieces:

Session One

Session One

"Mission Year Team Members faithfully spend time each week actively pursuing Biblical justice in their community. Their initial goal will be to identify and understand specific examples of individual, group, and systemic abuses of power which directly affect some or all of their neighbors. Later, Team Members will identify more experienced advocates who can enable them to responsibly help rescue, protect, or otherwise intervene on behalf of those neighbors, in areas of injustice."

RE-MEMBER '10

Jun 2 2010 - 12:00pm - Jun 5 2010 - 11:00am

RE-MEMBER is a gathering of young adults preparing for summers of service in Detroit and across Michigan. Event included individual program training, getting to know fellow summer interns, hanging out at the great Lake Louise United Methodist Camp, and much more.

The theme of "Multiculturalism" this year will bring us a number of immersion experiences into the culture of Hispanic communities, Deaf society, Native American congregations, and more.
