MONTHLY GATHERING:


Monthly Gathering - Friday, January 18th, 8:00 pm: Somalia has been in the news in recent years, but how much do you really know about this troubled country and it's people? Did you know that there are over 40,000 Somalis living in central Ohio--the largest concentration in the nation after Minneapolis? Liban Blue, who is working with a trauma treatment program of Southeast, Inc. will talk with us about Somalia and the immigrant experience. Join us at the home of Carla & Dick Nuenka. Call Carla or Dick at 326-0452 for directions or to RSVP.

SIG MEETINGS:


Social SIG/Games Night: Saturday, January 12th at 7:30 pm. at the home of Jack & Lisa Farnlacher. Bring your favoite games and a snack to share. Phone Jack (288-1524) or Liza (262-6574) if you have any questions or need directions.

Can We Talk? (CWT), Thursday evenings at 7:30 pm. Meet us at Smokey Bones (SB) Barbeque & Grill, 3939 Morse Crossing Blvd, Cols (43219}; 614-476-2668. Ways to reach SB at Easton - from Morse, south onto Morse Crossing (at CarMax), go past the 2nd light and turn onto the service road just before SB on your right. From I-270, take the Easton exit, drive west on Easton Way for five lights. Turn right (north) onto Morse Crossing. Turn left at the first light (Grammercy St.), then left onto the service road, and left again at the stop sign. You'll see SB on your right. They have great food. Hopefully, it's a better, more suitable home for CWT. They'll have us in the rear, left corner of their single floor. As always, please feel welcome to just drop in, or contact Jack (288-1524), Lisa (262-6574), or jack@thnc.org.
