Praise God! We had a great get together at Joseph Lonth uncle�s place on the 6th, the All UAE JOYnetters� meeting. We were 26 of us plus Manojettan from India. The meeting kicked off with a prayer, Praveen led it with his songs a guitar with only 5 strings J. After the prayer we spend time sharing our views about JOYnet, how it helped us and how we could make it a better venue for sharing and also for doing the work of God without being a burden for the members of this 1000 strong virtual fellowship. There were many suggestions, few of which were
1. To have moderators for discussions. 2. To filter hoaxes and 3. To have means to avoid personal prayer requests 4. To have a local team of JOYnetters who can meet once in a while to pray and interact. The general feeling that I got was that everyone used JOYnet as a forum for sharing their life with Jesus as well as a source for information. Finally we formed a service team for the JOYnetters here in UAE comprising of Sijo Mooken from Abudhabi, Primeson from Dubai, Jento from Dubai and Myself from Fujairah. Here is the list of members who attended the meeting. George Mathew, Jacob Jose, Vincent James, Bejoy Solomon, Praveen Isaac, K.G. Mathews, Sebastian Decruz, Roopesh, Sijo Mooken, Sasi Thomas, Simju Simon, Viji George, Densil Vincent, Primeson James, Jolly Abraham, Shaji Chacko (KC), Anil Joseph Paul (benshy), Biju Antony, Joseph K.K., Bejoy Cherian (C Be Joy), Saby P.V. (we celebrated his birthday on that day..thanks to List Admin for reminding us), Benny John, Jento Joy, James Thomas, Prejomy, Manoj Sunny (India) and myself. I hope this first meeting will go a long way in improving the JOYnet and also to build a fellowship based on it, which is much more than a virtual fellowship. Take care and God bless Abraham Fujairah, UAE. P.S. Suresh, we had a digital camera around but I got to read the mail from you only after the meeting L, would had done something other wise ;). **************************************************************** This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.
