News for fall of '09
The 8thDay Community is dedicated to living compassion in the city. This compassion is not only modeled but seen in a personal journey of faith and self-awareness into God's compassionate heart. Our care and compassion then becomes a community adventure in giving ourselves away to the "least, the lost, and the lonely."

This new email format to keep you up-to-date on our community rhythm and rule will provide you with the current events and other items of interest that this new and creative community is immersed in.

This fall season is a season of "forming" for the 8th Day Community. In this season we form new ties and new groups of learning and formation and celebrate Advent in the Church calendar. If you have further interest in any of the ministries of 8th Day, or would like to talk of how to present 8th Day to your church or organization phone 360-201-3957 or email Dr. Dale Pollard directly. Peace this day!

Prodigal Ministries
Prodigal Men's Ministries is continuing its reach into men's lives. Our groups are currently meeting at Roosevelt Community Church on Tuesday evenings, Bellingham Covenant and Hillcrest Chapel on Thrusday evenings. We will soon be starting yet another group at 1st Presbyterian in Bellingham on Thursday evenings as well in January of 2010.

In addition, we are developing a website for Prodigal Ministries that will be linked to the 8th Day site.  This will give us much more flexibility in the Prodigal world for both online forum capabilities and other uses.  The Prodigal website should be ready to debut in the next couple of months. For more information on Prodigal, visit the 8th Day website or email us directly.
