Editor's Notes

  • Images that come to mind with outreach…Dinner Party, School, Book club, distribution, laughing friends. Also, storm-tossed waves, forest w/o a map, new language
  • Sometimes outreach can feel like being in a ship in the storm
  • I hope that our time together reassures you of the life preservers around you
  • Sometimes participating in outreach seems like a forest without a trail. I feel lost, not sure where to go, how to get there, who is with me, etc.
  • Hopefully our time together will give you some directions and tools to use when you feel lost
  • Sometimes outreach seems like you are in a different country - with different customs, people, languages, etc
  • I hope this time together will remind you that there are guidebooks out there, and there are ways to navigate these new situations and opportunities.
  • I’m going to share what I’ve learned with you, and look forward to hearing your experiences too!
  • Located in the town of West Chicago, Illinois, which is about 30 miles west of the city of Chicago.
