The Neighborhood Church has a unique vision to “Change Church. Create Relationship.” Changing Church is a reality that moved The Neighborhood from a school cafeteria to a store front in between a Gym and a Mexican restaurant to a horse arena\, stable\, and barn. The Neighborhood has also embraced change in ministry with Pastor Joe and Deacon Jess establishing relationships with seminaries to create courses and pilot programs for LIFEgroups\, church leadership\, and bible studies. Currently\, they are working on launching The Neighborhood Church University\, a collaborative effort to lead and learn alongside the local church through conferences\, courses\, and curriculum for children’s ministry. Pastor Joe and Deacon Jess are surrounded by their two children: Caylee (12)\, an aspiring singer and volleyball player\, and Landen (10)\, a future YouTube star. Their favorite time together outside their church work involves bringing the kids out in the camper to National Parks across the US and taking hikes to secluded waterfalls. \nCheck out their recent Courageous Leadership presentation via ELCA Coaching: Leadership Challenges in a Digital Ministry Presence. \nOffering: Half of the offering will go to the NT-NL Eastern Conference for hosting us\, and the other half of the offering will go to the NT-NL Synod for transition support for congregations. \n \nChurchwide representative: Javier Goitia \nImportant note regarding Voting Members: Congregations shall be allotted additional voting members as follows: up to 500 baptized members\, two voting members; 501 – 750 baptized members\, 3 voting members; 751 – 1000 baptized members\, 4 voting members; 1001 or more baptized members\, 5 voting members.

Tentative Agenda for Saturday (updated April 29 at 5pm and SUBJECT TO CHANGE) We appreciate your grace as we all navigate changing realities up to the last minute. \nHotels: \n\n\n\nHoliday Inn Express & Suites North Dallas\, 6055 LBJ Freeway\, Dallas\, TX 75240\n\n\n\nThere is currently no more availability in our room block at special rates\, and the hotel is nearly sold out for that weekend and is not willing to offer us any more rooms at reduced rates for King and Double rooms. You may still be able to book a room at regular price through their online booking system: https://www.ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/us/en/dallas/dalvv/hoteldetail (note that self-parking is an additional fee) \n\n\n\nResidence Inn by Marriott Dallas by the Galleria\, 5460 James Temple Dr\, Dallas\, TX 75240 | Studio King = $119/night (including complimentary self-parking\, breakfast\, and wifi; you will also receive double Marriott Bonvoy reward points for your stay\, if you submit your member number prior to check-out)\n\n\n\nOnline booking: https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1647384316028&key=GRP&app=resvlink \nCall-in booking: 469-577-4208 (direct line to Annalise Smith | Room block name: “2022 NT-NL Synod Assembly”) \nAs of April 6\, there are five (5) rooms remaining in our room block at the special rate. It may be possible for us to expand our room block prior to April 15 if these sell out. \n \nWe are honored to have Richie Butler\, Senior Pastor of the historic St. Luke “Community” United Methodist Church (Dallas) and Founder of Project Unity\, as our preacher for this year’s Assembly! He is a recipient of the 2021 Martin Luther King Legacy Award\, and a past recipient of the SMU Distinguished Alumni Emerging Leader Award\, the Minority Business Leader award from the Dallas Business Journal\, and Dallas Bar Association Martin Luther King\, Jr. Justice Award recipient. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic\, Richie launched Together We Test that providing 5 testing sites in underserved communities in North Texas which tested nearly 7\,000.

Richie is married to Neisha Strambler-Butler and they have two children\, Emily and Ford. \n \n\nDr. Terra Rowe\, an Asst. Professor of Philosophy and Religion at the University of North Texas\, will be leading our bible study/theological reflection presentations. Dr. Rowe is a well respected theologian of the protestant tradition and particularly the intersection of protestant/Lutheran theology and environmental theology. As we reflect on our synod scripture “The Lord has done great things for us\,” she will challenge us to think about our understandings of God’s creation\, how that intersects with our responsibilities to steward this creation\, and how our theology of free gift might cause us to take creation for granted. She is also married to our UNT Campus Pastor the Rev. Jim Rowe. We are grateful to have Dr. Rowe on our territory and willing to share this time with us. \n\nWe are not offering the option of a Hard Copy of Assembly Reference Materials (previously called the Book of Reports) this year.

SUMMARY:Lenten Journey: Landscapes of Our Soul
DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays in Lent\, 7pm Central \nFebruary 24 – March 24 \nWith Biblical and landscape artist Sara Novenson\, and spiritual director and pastor\, the Rev. Linda Anderson-Little\, we will use Sara’s nature paintings as a visual tool for prayer (visio divina) and the Psalms for reflection and renewal. Art helps open up the creative side of our heart where prayer and faith reside\, as we experience our inner spiritual landscape and explore deeper ways of connecting with God.
