Different Methods for Different Outcomes

What I propose are faith communities in an informal association, a network only associated by its approach to the faith experience.  An association of communities that informally communicates through social media a general listing of gatherings when and where they occur.   Communities where the range of worship experiences can run from silence to shouts of praise, all during the same experience as the moment demands.  The approach would consist of informal gatherings in homes and other designated places where the focus would be on worship, prayer for one another and being open to experiencing the presence of God.  By that I mean an environment that nurtures the presence of God by not being constrained with a required format or common methodology.  They would be faith communities that are not controlled by denominational constraints but led by local appointed leaders that are like-minded and like-hearted in this endeavor, that are trusted to lead a community in a meaningful faith experience.  I am describing a contemporary version of the Acts 2 experience where people were gathered with one accord in one place, with no infrastructure to support, no pre-planned campaign to raise money to support some noble cause, no predetermined sermon or series of teachings to clarify some scriptural concept.  They would simply be a people of faith, gathering when felt called to do so, to experience an intersection of the natural with the supernatural.  It would be a time when lives can be touched and changed because we need it so desperately for our families, our communities and our nation.  A new method for a new outcome!
