I organized a group like this years ago (before Meetup.com existed) that worked great (lots of good veggie food, fun & fellowship). Also, there are vegetarian & Christian meetup groups, but I decided to start organizing this one so there will be more offerings for our community! The format that worked well before was a potluck at member homes &/or churches on a rotating monthly basis, so I envision doing the same again. Depending on interest, in addition to breaking bread together we might incl …

I don't know the producers or actors, or what they promote.  So for the four to six hours per day some kids watch TV, we play:)  Folks that don't watch TV are generally are more involved and active in our world, interact with their children and family members more, and consider original ideas. Watching TV is a passive thing.  Been in an active conversation when the TV comes on? Did the conversation stop as eyes wandered to it? Almost like a brain magnet, eh? Do we sit alone in a room full of fol …
