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!
