Cornerstone Bible Study - 11/30 "What is the Kingdom of God like?"

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Here is the information for this week's Bible study.
"Lord, open my eyes to the ways you would work in my life this very day. I pray that your kingdom would come and benefit all whom you desire to touch and save through my life. Let me know your love that I might allow you to work through me."

God Bless,
Maria

Cornerstone professional forum/Vincent

Dear All,

How are you? Wish every one had a nice Thanksgiving holiday. We had talked about a professional forum group for a while, but never get it started. Most of us like this idea and think it is a good thing to do it. Wish we can start it....

I am trying to put some highlights about this group together "again" and what we are going to do in the following ....
Our simple goals:
Help ourselves and help others
Strengthen ourselves and ready to serve
Simple philosophy: Serving God, living life.
What we are going to:
Presenting ourselves and willing to share
- Introduce ourselves and prepare for sharing
- Position ourselves and understand how world is changing
- Share / exchange our knowledge, experiences, specialties, etc.
Mentoring and exchanging spiritually and technically
- Be a mentor and a mentee
- Educate echo other - presentations, classes, projects, seminars, etc.
- Explore new opportunity / new fields from the group
- Practice technology leadership and teamwork with others
- Exercise our management skills in any aspect
Helping our communities
- Work on projects for the special needs

Initially we may need to meet one or two times continuously for laying out the format of the group and defining our purposes, etc. After that we can run this forum either every other week or once a month. I think we are ready for it, but just do have a good time and place for our meeting. Can any one suggest a time and place that we can meet? Please feel free to comment any thing that you think it is proper for this group.

Thanks,
Vincent
