Dear GTNGers and Friends:
You have arrived at the weblog-based web site of Gathering the Next Generation! Due to a few generous donors, we are the proud recipients of a TypePad "Pro" account, which will allow easier and more frequent updates to our site as well as the ability to have multiple GTNG-related blogs from multiple authors. Visit often, comment, and keep in touch!
For those of you who have just happened by the site, and a review for those who have been involved with GTNG for a while, our mission is above and our core values are as follows:
Our Core Values
We are Christ-centered.
We value the leadership of postmodern generations.
We value our relationships in Christ over issues that divide us.
We value restoring all people to unity with God and each other in Christ
At the same time as we launch a new web site, we also "launch" what we hope will be a new era of Gathering the Next Generation. In a conference call on Monday, August 28 the Core Team met, elected two new members, reduced the number of serving Directors to six (6) and thanked members Nathan Humphrey, Sean LaBat, and Dylan Breuer for their long service to GTNG as they finally rotate off the Core Team. We also elected officers. So, the GTNG Core Team is as follows:
Class of 2007: David Flentje and Rodney Hudgen+
Class of 2008: Anne Hodgens and Tom Sramek, Jr.+
Class of 2009: TBD and Leslie Nipps+
Officers for 2006-2007 are:
The Rev. Tom Sramek, Jr., President
The Rev. Rodney Hudgen, Secretary/Treasurer
We will be adding a person to fill our one open "slot" as well as electing a Vice-President in the coming months.
We are currently in the process of looking at how we might use the gifts and talents of current and potential Core Team members to strengthen the GTNG organization while at the same time discerning what purpose God might have for GTNG that is consistant with our current mission and core values. Comments are welcome, and updates will be posted.
In Christ,
The Rev. Tom Sramek, Jr., President
Excellent! Glad to see the new site up and running -- hope it proves a place for much fruitful conversation.
Blessings,
Dylan
