Tuesday, May 18th, 2010Hey Everyone,
We have all done a great job at hosting and filling our slots in the last 6 weeks. I just noticed this last week that we are wide open for the next couple weeks. If any of you have any ideas or would like to take a round for hosting – like Christine for example 
– Please feel free to sign up. Even if you are like, what would I do, but I wouldn’t mind just having people over. Then give it a shot.
The leadership team (Derek, Tim, Christine, me) will be meeting tomorrow night to talk about plans for summer, etc. If you have thoughts or suggestions let us know. I know Bar-B-Que days are just around the corner.
Also, just a reminder for any of you who have been waiting for an opportunity to give to the joy box – remember you can give at www.canadahelps.org. Just find WestCoast Baptist Association and designate to the fund – The Open House. Try this link: Give Here
We still need to gather a few funds for sending Kyle to his retreat away.
Gracias y Bendiciones,
Deric

Friday, April 16th, 2010hello all!
so this sunday we are going to attempt to squeeze into our place, and i will talk a bit about my recent trip & show a few pictures. if you’ve never been here before, we are at:
2566 dundas st (between penticton & kamloops)
ground level suite (door is at the back)
andrea & i will be providing the drinks (including indonesian coffee) & an appetizer.
unfortunately, for those of you with children, we can’t provide much in terms of entertainment (we only have a couple stuffed animals & lots of crayons), so if you want to bring something along that would be great.
if you haven’t been here before & need driving and/or bus directions, or if you have any questions, let me know. or andrea.
see you on sunday at 5pm!
joey & andrea
This Sunday & Sunday to Come
Thursday, April 8th, 2010Hey Everyone,
Thanks to everyone for a great Easter meal and time together last Sunday.
The leadership team has come up with a plan for the next 8 weeks or so, but in order for it to work out we need everyone’s involvement.
We talked about how it would be great to give all of us a chance to facilitate our times together based on how God is working in your life, has gifted you in some way, or is leading you personally. “Facilitation” simply means that you come up with an idea, run with it, and lead the time while we’re all together (or get someone to do it with you). Some ideas to get you thinking: a night of prayer, discussion or meditation around a passage of scripture, watching a thought provoking video, connecting with God through music or art, sharing about your recent missions trip (Joey), discussion around a particular question, interacting with nature, interpretative dancing (Anna), etc. Derek K. is planning to use a Ted talk. We DON’T want this to be an intimidating thing, and the leadership team is available for you to bounce your ideas off of, and help in anyway that we can – sometimes the more simple, the better! The time can last anywhere from 20 min. to 45 min. and we’re still planning to begin at 5pm with dinner, ending sometime around 7pm.
Not only do we need you to volunteer to facilitate, we also need to organize where we’ll be meeting for the next 8 weeks….so get ready to share yourself, and your home! Below is a sign up sheet with dates, so you can choose when you’d like to facilitate, and when would be a good time to host TOH.

So this week we’ll be at Kyle and Anna’s place – 3274 William Street. See you there at 5pm, and remember to bring some good eatings to share. By the way thanks for everyone contributing last week.. it made for a great meal!!
I will see you at Kyle’s this Sunday. I will also give a bit more vision to our idea above and also what we will be working on together in the coming months.
Have a great rest of the week,
Deric
toh for Easter Sunday
Thursday, April 1st, 2010Hey TOH,
We’re excited to celebrate Easter with you all this Sunday night at our place, 5:00pm. We live at 2602 Kitchener St.
We’ll celebrate together over a meal, some worship, and hearing the Easter Story.
In order to have a great meal together, we thought it would be helpful to have everyone sign up to bring something to share to make sure we have a good variety of food. So please sign up for one of the dishes from the email sent to the google group.
Cheers
toh for Sunday March 21
Thursday, March 18th, 2010The Open House will be meeting at the Kehler’s this Sunday (21st) at 5pm. 1613 E. 4th Ave. Vancouver, BC (of course)
It is going to rock… bring some food to share as always – unless this is your first time with us, or it feels like it, because we haven’t seen you in more than 5 months
Kyle will be making an important announcement and leading us in a discussion about The Open House and changes with leadership team.
C U Sunday night.
