David,
Thanks so much for your willingness to host half of our PIF class at Greater Bethesda. Just to confirm the basics: we’d be at your church on Tuesday, November 7, from 6:00-7:15 pm (eating here first and then coming back for small groups and worship afterward). We’d be interested in your talking with us about your context and how your mission flows from that, and then giving us time to ask questions. If you’d like to show us around, that would be fine. We can talk more about specifics.
Thanks a million!!!
