November: November 19, 6:30pm to order food, conversation runs 7-8 pm, Wilson’s Eatery
December: No gathering
January: January 7 (back to the usual first Tuesday)
Here is our proposed question for our November 19 gathering; it stems from a family conversation around the lunch table between Bill, Gary and me. This question was inspired by Bill’s reading of this article in The Atlantic.
With more of us working irregular schedules, it has become harder to plan for relationship time. How do you have regular family dinners, or plan an evening with friends, or visit your aging parents if you have no idea when the boss will call you in for work or for an “emergency” project which requires long hours? Our unpredictable schedules also impact our ability to build in regular time for spiritual growth and the relationships that strengthen our faith. Are irregular work schedules getting in your way of having relationship time? If so, what have you found works for you? How might the congregation help you with that?
A word about friends: Bring yours! Life & Faith has always been open to anyone. If you think this topic would interest a friend, invite them to come with you.
