SUMMARY:Pray for Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:We are asking folks to register soon so we can organize food and treats. \nAgenda\n\n5:00 PM – 5:30 PM – Check-in\, grab dinner plate\, find your seat\n5:30 PM – 6:00 PM – Dinner and viewing short film “Outpost Ukraine”\nThis moving short film highlights important history and spiritual reasons for Russia’s war against Ukraine.\n6:00 PM – 7:30 PM – Prayer program followed by Ukrainian dessert treats\n\nDetails\nThe situation in Ukraine is certainly highlighting the news cycle and there is loads of conflicting information about what is really happening and what are the solutions to bring lasting peace. We gather to share first hand accounts from Ukrainians on the ground and in the know\, and want to provide an inside look for the purpose of prayer. You will hear from a Ukrainian military chaplain and from a pastor of a church in Russian-occupied territory. \n\nWe will unite as followers of Christ and pray to our almighty God and the Prince of Peace for topics such as the peace\, security\, and future of Ukraine.\nWe will lift up political leaders\, pastors\, churches\, and Ukrainian citizens like widows\, orphans\, soldiers\, military chaplains.\nIn addition\, we will pray for persecuted Protestant believers and churches in the occupied territories as well as for those suffering as a result of the war.\nLastly\, we will pray for the well-being of our Ukrainian refugee neighbors\, a number of whom you will pray alongside.\n\nThe people of Ukraine need comfort\, support and hope. And the Ukrainian refugee community will be blessed as followers of Jesus come alongside and show the love of Christ to them in tangible\, transformational ways. \nWe will enjoy worship in English with a few verses in Ukrainian to help fix our eyes on Jesus. \nEnjoy the opportunity to meet some of your Ukrainian neighbors. \n—————– \nSome information about the Ukrainian community in Austin: \nOver 5\,000 Ukrainians live in the Austin area. The majority have arrived since the full-scale invasion began three years ago. They’ve come to the U.S.\, not seeking a better life but safety for their families and a future for their kids. \nUkrainians are hard-working\, well-educated\, with strong moral and family values. Imagine starting from scratch in a new country with limited language while dealing with grief\, loss\, trauma\, and your home country devastated by war? \nThere are a handful of local churches and organizations reaching out to help Ukrainian refugees. We will have information available for those interested to learn more. \n\n  \nUkrainian friends gathered in Austin to cheer on their boxing champion\, Oleksandr Usyk in his successful rematch over Tyson Fury. \nSupport group for Ukrainian refugees in Austin called Finding Home Again covering topics like transition\, grief\, loss\, trauma\, parenting\, and identity.

SUMMARY:Engagement in a Changing Culture Workshop
DESCRIPTION:You are invited\nWhen: March 25th\, 2020 9 am-1 pm Lunch included\nWhere: Hill Country Bible Church-North Auditorium\n12124 RR 620 N Austin\, 78750\nRSVP: CLICK HERE \nQuestions: Brad.Hopp@cru.org \nOur culture is rapidly changing. The issues we face today in our cities are complex\, yet many of our evangelistic strategies were created decades ago. People are demanding more from Christians. Today many outside the Church view Christians as hypocritical and narrowminded. We don’t have the credibility that we enjoyed in former generations. How can we gain an audience with those far from the cross? How do we effectively engage others with the Gospel? \nThe Gospel Engagement in a Changing Culture workshop seeks to answer these questions as we explore the needs of people and the desires of those who seek gospel proclamation in the city. For two years\, the City division of Cru has been exploring how we can be more effective connecting with our audience. We’ve been asking how followers of Jesus can minister in the wild field of the city. \nCru commissioned extensive qualitative and quantitative research by Local Industries (localindustries.com) which will be introduced throughout the workshop. Many of the principles gleaned from our research have informed our approach to the city\, and can be easily applied to any audience—a neighborhood\, campus\, sports team\, school\, church or the workplace. We will introduce seven personas along a wide spectrum of spiritual faith and belief. The Workshop will also reveal the five things that our research reveals need to be present in a relationship and conversation in order to gain trust and engagement. \nThrough these workshops\, church leaders and lay people are experiencing new freedom and fruit in their opportunities for Gospel witness and growing in significant relationships with people on their spiritual journeys. \n\nVision of Cru Austin\nTo connect people to Jesus and develop spiritual leaders who\nwill advance the mission of Jesus to impact Austin and the world.
