Church planting and kingdom advancing network...

Gathering


I plan on launching a Church Planting and Kingdom Advancing network (I need a shorter cooler name) on campus at Tyndale this Fall term. See the post that brought this about here.


Knowing next to no one, as I begin my first year full-time there as a student, I'm trying to make things 'legit' with student council, and hope to find a way to draw out those that might be interested in something like this.


i'm currently imagining the gatherings to be provide and be driven by...


Networking - Awakening and connecting with like-minded and like-hearted people.


Equipping - through Students, practitioners, professors? Material from Acts29, IMN, or others?

Resourcing - Tools, books, sites, experiences, networks


Visional Environment - A place to pray, dream, innovate, create, cultivate, and inspire one another.


One of the first experiences I hope to connect this group with is via a road trip to the IMN (International Mentoring Network) Regional conference in Montreal in september.


International Mentoring Network

Here's what's happening for it:


- Strengths assessment and training


- Steps for guiding people through life transformation


- Voxtropolis–new paradigms for mission and ministry in our cyber-electronic world


- guidance for leaders of the church in a 21st century post Christian west


- access to new networks and relationships


- multi-sensory experience


What do you all think? I'm going to need lots of help with this and hope many can get involved. Anyone interested?
