some things you should know if you are going to hang out with us...

last thursday we got back to a semi-normal schedule with ALIVE :)
it was a little bit more of an "informational week" - but now  we should be good to go!
we had lots of new faces :)  so fun!
so if you didn't make it last week but would still like to check it out - please still do.

if you WEREN'T there but would like to be... i'm about to make it so much easier for you.
you are welcome.
;)
on this front page here, there is a calendar.  if you look to the right side of the page, in the middle-ish you will see it.  you really cannot miss it.
you can look there to see what is going on for every thursday :)
it IS subject to change... but it should be pretty accurate.

in case it isn't SUPER clear what it all means, here is your key;

Art Night:  there will be approx one of these each month.  it is a night that anyone and everyone is invited to - we will be hanging out in the dungeon (see below for further clarification) and doing SOME sort of arting (painting, drawing, splattering, paper antiquing, etc.).  it doesn't matter if you are a master or if you have never heard the word art before - if you want to come art with us, you are welcome.

Productiveness:____: if you see this on a thursday night, it means that we are working on something specific.  whether it be a drama or a video or whatever - you will know ahead of time if you need to be at this night and it will more often than not be in the mirror room.  however, that being said - if you are not scheduled to be at one of these nights, you are still welcome to come and hang out... just know that if you get bored - we warned you ;)

Gathering Night O' Creativity: this one i feel is pretty self-explanatory... but in case its not - basically this is a night when everyone is invited to come and we will be doing SOMETHING creative.  maybe improv games, maybe dramas, maybe team arting, maybe eating - something.  it'll be time that we will just spend as a team all together.  there will be approx one of these each month as well.  this will most likely be in the studio or in the mirror room.


meeting places.............

Dungeon:  the dungeon sounds scary... but its not.  it is the room that is located directly below the worship center aka the "worship arts storage" room on the lower level.  (but i don't know who gave it such an impersonal and cold sounding name)  so we refer to it as the dungeon.  it has cement floors - so anyting "arting" will happen there.

Mirror Room:  is off the gym in the fellowship hall.  it is also used as the Roots room or you may know it as the old SWAP room.  either way - it got its incredibly original name because there is a wall of mirrors in the room.  any dance and/or drama practice will be done in that room.

the Studio: the studio is in the children's area, its the room with the stage.  this is where we play improv games, and other random things.


other notes.....

Dining Room: if you hear us refer to the dining room - it means that we are meeting in the lobby.

Living Room: "meet in the living room" means that we will meet on the stairs leading up to the stage in the worship center.  obviously.


now that you are all caught up and fluent in ALIVE geography and scheduling - we will be seeing you! :)

also - if there is something that you would LIKE to try or be a part of... like if you would love to be in a drama or if you just want to try dancing or if you have some hidden talent in art -
LET ME KNOW.
our passion as leaders of ALIVE is to create the opportunities for you to find your gifts, practice them and USE them and we can't do that unless you tell us........................
or unless we just decide for you.  which we can do.
:)

that is all i have for now!
but come hang out with us :)
check out the calendar... but we will see you at 730pm.

be blessed!
