Walnut Hills

Dinese and Jamie reported on their experience with the Hopemobile at Walnut Hills (a Massillion area projects development). There is clearly a need to express God's love in this area of Massillon and the feeling is that a partnership with the Hopemobile's already existing presence may be best. We need to discuss how to turn this into something real. What types of activities and events will be most effective and most appropriate? Some ideas were interactive games, quick and simple theater type stuff (light and funny, but also focused on delivering Jesus' message - less about works/acts), magic with a meaning (spiritual). We also talked about effectively setting expectations with volunteers and to encourage them to really think through whether their children should come along (give them the points to ponder).

Team, fill in the blanks that I missed here and add your ideas. Let's start to make this actionable.

Servant appreciation ideas

What ideas do you have about servant appreciation? 2 each year? A big and a small? We discussed many random ideas last night but I don't think we made any decisions other than we need one soon. Soem of the things that were discussed were possibly partnering with the other ministries in the church to do an all servants event with a "bigtimer" like comedian Tim Hawkins. Steven James would also be amazing for children's but we'd need to schedule WAY in advance. We talked about many presentation elements including kid testimonials, teacher testimonials, and the possibility of getting some "big church" time to recognize our servants' efforts. What did I miss?
