I've signed up for the 3/8 class on the MDG's, and I live in the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas (St. Barnabas, Denton). I've been asked to lead an adult forum on the MDG's. In my previous church (St. Mark's, San Antonio) I initiated the planning and implementation of an MDG-focus during Epiphany (2007), followed by a collection of offerings during Lent. (In addition to making monetary donations, parishioners have been asked to bring loaves of bread each Sunday in Lent, which are then distributed by the local Daily Bread.)
I'm hoping to increase my awareness of the materials available for leading the class I'm planning, and to share ideas for building and encouraging my congregation's participation.
