Meetings meetings meetings

So my first service this weekend went well. It is cool being at Willow and seeing their attitude and mindset when it comes to ministry. This past week though I have been to a lot of meetings. One meeting I went to last friday was especially cool and helped me get a feel for how ministry is done here. The meeting was from 11-1 and the core leaders of Axis (18-30 ministry) were coming up with a plan to connect first time visitors to Axis. I could sense the urgency that everyone had and the passion for connecting people with Christ and a community of Christ followers. I also have been to a teacher meeting hearing about summer curriculum, a tech meeting talking about what is going on next sunday and what needs to happen, a Promiseland meeting discussing survey questions talking about questions like "do you think that you are recognized when you do a good job" and "do you feel like you have a say in decisions," and a monthly staff meeting hearing about the direction that willow is going in and how they are going about it.
The impression that I get from these meetings are that communication is huge, that they are very action oriented, and that everything they do is on purpose.
Its very cool being immersed in a very focused and passionate church. Im excited to serve and learn all sorts of things.
