WHAT WE DID

On Oct. 27, 2007 our Presbytery hosted (along with the Santa Clara County Council of Churches, Sunnyvale Presbyterian Church, Resurection Catholic Church, and Reach and Teach) a BIG event on "How to Make the World a Better Place."  Three hundred + people attended 35 workshops on a wide variety of topics helping people consider how they best could make a difference in some area of passion. For this event we made a short documentary film (see below) and prepared a book of the presenter notes for all the workshops plus more.  We made posters for the event and Sweatfree T shirts with our event logo on them.  Below is a link to the film, photos from the event, "Next Steps" and resources including how you can purchase the film, T shirt, book and or poster.
