The way we are trying to do things does not come naturally to those of us who have grown up in and be trained by the UK church. It's second nature to us to try and build "church" and try and attract people to our events in the hope that they might meet Jesus. The problem is Jesus commissioned to "make disciples" and leave the building of church to Him. Grasping that and the huge mindset and cultural changes that flow out of that takes time. In fact it takes about 3 years!
We have had lots of great help from 3DM UK and we are about ready to go so watch this space and see how we get on, we'll let you know.
