About me: Check out Jacob's Well's website for more information.
Jacob’s Well began with a handful of people in 1998. We are joined together around a dream and a call to build a community in midtown Kansas City with Jesus Christ at the center. Our desire is that we would be an authentic, biblical community where people experience and express the reality of God’s love in the way of Jesus.
Our name reflects our dream and our mission. In the New Testament book of John, Jesus encounters a woman who is at the fringes of her culture, a woman with great hunger and great need. Jesus reaches out to her and invites her into his life and kingdom. In so doing she becomes a part of a new community. In the same way, Jacob’s Well is striving to be a place — like the biblical Jacob’s Well — where people who are searching can encounter God and find a place in his kingdom and community and join him in his work in the world.

We recently moved to southern Indiana and we miss JW so much. We are looking for a church that carries the same beliefs and teaching. Boy what a feat. JW you are truly such an authentic christian community, you will be hard to replace.

Don't make plans for Saturday, November 25th. I am having a concert/dinner party at my house for charity. There is a suggested donation of $5/person for a pasta dinner and live music from local artists. There will be anywhere between 4-8 musicians performing from 7-9pm that evening. It should be a good night and a good way to raise money for City Union Mission (http://www.cumission.org/About.htm). You can find out more info about the concert ("Pasta & Acoustic Guitars") on MySpace (myspace.com/timschurrer) or on my website (www.timschurrer.com).
Check it out and get excited!
Please RSVP at "pasta@timschurrer.com" so we know how much food to prepare.
