My tradition typically spends a lot of time preparing two aspects of a church service: the music (we call it worship) and the sermon.
The coffeehouse was different. There was no live music and no sermon.
We spent time reflecting on a painting and a song. We spent time listening to each other. We spent time drinking coffee and eating brownies.
Everyone was empowered to participate.
At the end of the night I reflected on some highlights: one person dropped in off the street and said they were glad they did; our surveys indicated unanimous interest in doing it again; and I was inspired to keep dreaming.
Here's some video footage from the evening.

It was great indeed. Can't wait for the next one.
What about hittin a pub next time.
Maybe that way you could get the spirits working together!
Hey Jason, nice video. What song was that?
The song is called "When people go" by Craig Cardiff. He's a singer/songwriter who grew up in Kitchener/Waterloo.
