report on our first meeting....

the central va emergent cohort held its first "official" gathering last night at Norm's Bar and Grille located at Faria's Restaurant in Forest, VA. I'm not sure how much we accomplished, but we had some fun times...

there were five of us rob, nick, liz, me, and jaime.

we decided to read a book over the summer and then discuss it in the fall (that way the college students won't miss too much of the conversation). We picked Dan Kimball's new book "They like Jesus, but not the Church" since its pretty applicable and should fit us well. If you want to take part, go buy or borrow the book. In the meantime, we will be meeting once a month to get to know one another and grow the group.

little did we know that it was karaoke night at Norm's and so we sang a few songs and Rob ended the night by treating the bar to Weird Al's "Amish Paradise" - good times, indeed...I look forward to the next meeting.
