Invite you to the FIRST group meeting and general discussion for people who are interested in matters of faith.  We plan to “meet and greet,” introducing our site names, and sharing our faith background if we so desire.  [It is not required that you share your own religious point of view right away, if you do not so desire . . .]

 

Quite a few folks at Disaboom have expressed interest in finding a way to interact with others of faith, with various goals in mind.  Some are interested in how faith strengthens their ability to deal with disability, others are interested in how their disability has brought them to faith.  Some are interested in talking about comparative religions, and others are interested in making new “faith friends,” to build a PM network.  We also might want a Bible sub-group. The thought is that many are interested in a dialogue of sorts regarding faith issues, in the context of disability, and their lives in general as people, regardless of whether they are disabled or not.  The only requirement is a respect for each other’s beliefs, and a civil discourse.

 

Discussion:  Tuesday, March 3

Location:  Disaboom Chat Room, “Faith and Disability”

Time:  8 p.m.  (We are trying to accommodate both East and West Coast members)

 

*If you have a big problem with this time, and enough people do, we will schedule a second meeting, or re-schedule this one.

 

                  HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE! ! !

    Would love to be able to attend. Can the night be switched though? Tuesday nights I have a Conversational Spanish for the Workplace class that my boss was generous enough to pay for :). (We are a small nonprofit and more and more of our clients are Spanish speaking.) I must be there. I think this is an awesome idea for a group, in fact i have been looking for one like this. You might just be an answer to a need many of us are currently feeling.All the best, and please let me know if a switch is possible. Thanks, Ness
