emergingumc, a gathering, 2: Where? When?

Companions,

In ongoing conversations with several of you, online and offline, I'm looking most seriously right now at 4 possible venues for our second gathering...

Indianapolis, Indiana (home of Lockerbie Central UMC)

Greater Cincinnati Area (near Th3Waters/Florence UMC and several other connections)

Dallas, TX (home of Perkins/SMU and the methemergentlab)

and back here in Nashville, TN (home of country music and, well, this cohort, among other things!)

So... I'm asking y'all to help me decide location among these viable options. (Technically, I have to make the final call, but I want all the input and reflection on that possible).

AND... I'm needing from you as well a sense of when in late fall would work best for you to be part of this gathering...

For me right now the available times are:
October 1-3
October 8-10 (but this might be the same as an emergent event-- but can't tell since the calendar on emergentvillage is down... anyone know?)
October 22-24-- would coincide with 350.org Action Day (October 24)
November 12-14

These are all Thursday-Saturday time frames.... chosen because that's what we chose for last time based on your input, but that's up for discussion!

So... Where... and When?

Peace in Christ,

Taylor Burton-Edwards
