As for the Highlander Sessions, at this point I'm hoping to have one more whole group meeting before we start meeting in the small 5ish person groups. I'm going to call Dr. Harding today to see if he's available at all in the next couple of weeks for that meeting. I'm hoping he'll be willing to center us and place us in a historical context. Otherwise, I was wondering if you want to be in one of the small groups, and those groups will set their own schedule for hearing each member's story over the summer. Maybe one group will want to spend an entire day together, and hear all the stories over the course of that day, and another group will want to hear one story/week, etc. Does that make sense? Sorry - I feel like I'm struggling to explain well since I don't know how much people know when I'm explaining.....
