San Antonio Emergent:

Anyone insterested in joining the Austin Emergent Cohort Group for this one? Email me.

What: Habitat For Humanity - Deconstruction Project

When: Saturday, August 26, 8:00 AM

Event Description: Habitat for Humanity is a great organization that provided meaningful and fun opportunities to make a difference. We are forming what is called a "Deconstruction Team."  This is a group of 10 or more people who go to an existing house that will be demolished and salvage reusable items (doors, light fixtures, hardware, etc.).  No special skills are needed. Habitat will sell what we salvage at their re-store and use the money to help build homes.  This will be an all-day event.

Location will be determined by Habitat.  Details will be emailed later to those who RSVP.

Austin Emergent, Theology Pubs

I had the privilege of visiting the Austin Emergent Meetup (Cohort) last weekend when I was up in Austin. A lot of familiar faces, from the Emergent Gathering (Glen, Greg, Lance, the December McLaren visit (Rigel), and previous San Antonio Cohort meetings (Jim, Scott). I was impressed to see three women there, a higher ratio than we've had in a long time.

Also wanted to let any of you folks who drive up the road to Austin frequently know about three theology pubs (in the tradition of the Inklings) that are going on:
