   Jim Wallis is speaking in NYC on January 21st. I am planning to be there, so if you want to go and have an impromptu EmergentNJ meeting in Manhattan let me know.

   I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. With EmergentNJ meetings usually happening the last weekend of the month, November and December make things a little tricky. The December meeting will be Monday the 17th at the Office in Ridgewood. We will try to shoot for 8pm. Leave a comment if you think you can make it.
   
   Grace and Peace,
   Thom

   There will be a meeting on Sunday as well. Sorry for not making that clear. The Monday meeting will be held as well if there are enough people who can meet then. Sunday around 1pm at The Office in Ridgewood, NJ. See you then!
