:: AIP#57 - Fort Worth Happenings 10/01 ::

Our goal is to give you opportunities to engage our city: to love your neighbors, build relationships, and serve Fort Worth. Every now and then we'll let you know about different [generally free or very cheap] things happening around town, which are opportunities for you to go be with folks who live in the city we're seeking the welfare of (Jeremiah 29:9). Coming up this weekend:

  • Fri 10.02, 7pm-9:30pm: Live Music on the Patio - Central Market (Hulen @ I-30): From CM's website: "Join us on the patio for juicy burgers, tasty fries, cold beer and live music. Seats go fast, so get here early! Tonight's Band: Matt Day (Acoustic country)"
  • Fri, 10.02, 7pm-??pm : First Friday on the Green - Magnolia Green Park (on Lipscomb between Magnolia and Rosedale): a monthly occurrence, October's is a three-band concert, free of charge but you're encouraged to bring paper plates, cups, and individually wrapped snacks to benefit the Ronald McDonald House. No outside food or drink. More info here.
  • Sat, 10.03, 3pm-??pm: Oktoberfest - The Gingerman (Camp Bowie): a great celebration hosted by our friends at a great pub. Live music, smoked ribs, chicken and sausage in the parking lot, tastings, & an all-around good time (plus the inside scoop is that servers will be in traditional German-wear!) More info here.
  • Sat, 10.03, 3pm-10pm: Arts Goggle - Near Southside (hospital district area): a Fort Worth art & music festival. There are an impressive 64 venues, plus 15 bands playing throughout the day, all across the Near Southside from Magnolia to Park Place to Fairmount to South Main to Vickery and more! More info here.

  • Sun, 10.04, 2pm: First Sunday Film - Central Public Library (downtown): Murder, My Sweet (1944 film-noir thriller). More info here.
  • PLUS... lots of local bands at various bars, or go check out the museums, or hit up one of our live theaters. And of course, there's lots to do around TCU too. Fort Worth Weekly is a great resource for other FW happenings, plus this week their annual "Best of Fort Worth" issue hit the stands - pick one up, and get to know our city!

And within The City Church family, we've got a full week ahead as well:
  • Sun, 10.04, 9am: Worship with The Rooted Church (@ College Avenue Baptist): our good friends at The Rooted Church have opened their doors to The City Church family, inviting us to join them whenever we want this fall, for their worship services. And this week, our own Andrew Sullivan will be leading music for them; come out to support The Rooted and Andrew! More info here.
