Music & Tech
PM Plan Goal: To create a safe space where our community can use music as one way of worshiping God together.
- Find ways to collaborate with the community in the music making process.
- Create a sound that allows the community to be a part of the choir.
- Create a set that is well organized and easy to fallow.
- Make sure all understand the language we are using (other cultures and "Christianese").

Arts PM Plan Goal: To create a safe space for our community to use art as one way of worshiping God together.
- FInd ways to collaborate with the community in the art making process.
- Provide materials, designate a space and give simple and clear directions on how to engage in the art making process.
- Continue to use and reference the map. We have decided to leave it in the front of the space for the rest of the season. We will not be re-creating the rest of the season, but we will be adding and enhancing what is already going on.
- Consider blowing up parts of the map and having the community add something to that focused section of the map (have community members pull a prints over it, put a thumb print on it, collage it, paint it, stencil it, create a relief relief sculpture on it, etc.).
- Consider having the community physically move in some way (Rob demonstrated this on Oct. 2nd).
October 9th Meg & Greg F./Greg G./Matt We are still working out details of the Art part, but it will be using small clay figures-- when placed far apart and then a heavy weight is placed on them all (like a piece of plexi with a person standing on top of it), the clay figures are crushed. But if there are many figures and they crowd together, the overbearing weight does not crush them at all.

Solidarity Prayer
PM Plan Goal: To create a safe space for our community to use prayer as one way of worshiping God together.
- To be informed, and to inform others about what is going on in this day and age, and to use prayer as one way of remaining connected with our brothers and sisters around the world.
- If you need it, here is a simple Solidarity Prayer format:
- Hi my name is ____and I am here to tell you about_____.
Create 5-10 sentences to explain who we are praying for.
Create 5-10 sentences to explain why we are praying for them.
Offer 2-4 visual aides (slides, maps, props, etc.)
Finish with “Please rise with me now as I pray” or “Please rise and join me in saying this prayer together (show slide of pre-scripted prayer)”.
-Be in contact with person in our community who is in connection with people
group; see how they can be involved (co-lead prayer/info, help plan, aid with info)
