eikon informational meeting! Posted by 07.04.2009 3:40 pm

i’m very excited to (finally) be able to tell you guys about our next eikon shindig. after the success of last month’s cookout, on sunday, july 19 at 6:00 p.m., we’ll be having an informational meeting at vino’s.

there’s two reasons you might want to come to this meeting:

1. if you’ve ever wanted to know anything about this whole eikon thing, you don’t want to miss this meeting. during our time together, we’ll talk about the who, what, where, when, why & how of eikon. whereas it’s difficult to distill the totality of information into an hour or so, we really think this meeting should give a very clear picture of what we’re trying to do with this new faith community.

OR…

2. if you really love calzones, pizza and pale ale from vino’s, this meeting’s for you. :) even if you couldn’t care less about this church thing, you can certainly just come hang out with us, grab some pizza & a beer and meet a few new people. and who knows, maybe while you’re there you’ll hear something that resonates with you.

either way, it’s a great time to come hang out with us. if there was ever a time to jump in on this eikon thing, this meeting would be it. whereas the cookout was very laid back and cookout-ish (you like that?… cookoutish…), this meeting will be very much information-driven (although we’ll definitely take a good 45 minutes or so of just hanging out and eating dinner together).

we’d love for you to help us spread the word. there’s several things you can do:

  1. 1. tell your friends about it.
  2. 2. email a link to this blog post.
  3. 3. direct them to our facebook page and/or the facebook event page.
  4. 4. tell them about our twitter, where there will be updated information.
  5. 5. tell them to call or email ryan to hear some more about what’s going on.
  6. 6. send them to our website. while it’s not much right now, it will give them a launching point to other relevant information.

we hope to see you there and hope to meet quite a few new people. see you in a couple weeks!



eikon cookout! Posted by 05.21.2009 8:52 pm

eikon cookout

after months of planning and organizing, i’m very excited to announce that, on sunday, june 7, eikon will have its first ever public gathering. christen and i will be having a cookout at our house. we have a kind of cool garden type space behind our house, so that should be a good place to hang out, meet some new people and have some burgers and some beers.

let me emphasize that this will not be a worship service or really any kind of “churchy” sort of thing. this will simply be a very laid back cookout. we won’t ask people to fill stuff out. we won’t be doing any kind of speaking or anything. there won’t be any kind of weird “getting to know you” kind of stuff. it will just be a chance to meet a few new people and get a sense of all the other people that have been hearing all the same things as you about eikon church.we’ll kick things off at 5 p.m. and we’ll wrap things up around 8 p.m. for those of you with children under 5, we’ll be offering free child care in our home. to see a map to our house, click here (we’re the house directly next to the empress bed & breakfast). to be more exact, our address is 2118 s. louisiana st in little rock.so, we’re very excited about the cookout, so we definitely hope you come out! this will be the soft launch for the church, so we’ll have much more information in the coming weeks.

on another big note, we’re very close to launch the real deal eikon website. in the next couple days, we’ll have some temporary stuff up on the site, but the fully site should be up and running in the next 2-3 weeks. so, be looking out for more info on that.

alright, mark your calendars for the cookout. if you have questions, feel free to call me (ryan) at 501.551.8118 or shoot me an email at eikon [at] beingryanbyrd [dot] com. see you in a couple weeks!
