After a long process of talking to student councils, deans, and advertisements that were botched severely last minute, We’re going to try to have our first meeting on campus tomorrow at noon… calling on those Voxtropolis prayers now!

Thanks all!

I’m convinced as much as people can seem ‘to themselves’ there are people all over, even catalytic leaders, that have a desire to plug in and network with others… somewhere deep down. I hope to find these men and women!

As for your question, i’m hoping to create a place for students to connect, it is a seminary after all. But I just find that there’s a sense of having ‘already arrived’ when people are there. And the dreaming and the visioning seems to come to a bit of a halt. I hope to be church planting once I’m done, and hope to help others to do the same as well!

Am I understanding that your hope is to create a place for students to connect and grow in or is it a church you are trying to plant a church on campus?

My home church is somewhat of an ethnic based church, so it’s not always the best environment for people with a different ‘heritage’ unfortunately i find. Toronto’s a pretty big city, and there’s a whole range of different faith communities. A few that have hit my radar in the community include… Freedomize, People’s, The olive branch, Queensway cathedral to name a few.

So it could depend on where they’re willing to commute to or where they might be in their spiritual journey…

I’d love for people that come out of this ‘network’ to start launching more innovative and missional communities, it’s quite an amazing city to minister,work,live in!

Thanks,

Nooc, NERVe… hrm, interesting. i just might use that. acronym for nooc? i’ll take a swing at it. Never Once Ordered Cookies? Neat Or Outrageous Ceature?

As for shorter/cooler name… I don’t know how you feel about acronyms but what you bolded above (Networking, Equipping, etc.)… works out to NERVE.

Works for me.
