<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Hello Creative Friends -</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Thank you so much for coming out last Thursday for The Collective's Grand Finale. I was moved to tears by your kindness and well wishes in my new God adventure at Praise Community Church. Man, I'll miss you all terribly! But Praise is just down the road - haha! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">As you know from the previous note, I gave a four week notice. Today, Thursday, 11/10 is my 3rd week and I still have so many loose ends to tie up that I know I'll be here for a few more days - maybe even until Thursday, 11/17, we'll see. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<u><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Here is what the Infused Arts schedule looks like for the rest of 2016:</span></u><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">TONIGHT:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> </span><i><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The Write Space</span></i><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> meets from 6:30pm to 8pm and my friend Abby Trevino will visit with us and share her heart on how God uses her gift of writing to share His heart with others. This is prophetic writing. And I've been a blessed recipient of these letters. She and I will speak about the process of hearing from God, writing it out, delivering the message and then responding to His love as the recipient. It's going to be cool guys, I hope you can come out! We meet in room #112. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">THURSDAY 11/17:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> </span><i><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Open Studio</span></i><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> is 6:30pm to 8:30pm. Bring your project and create in the midst of community in an encouraging environment. If you'd rather, you can bring $6 for an 11x14 canvas panel and use of all art supplies. We meet in the coffee bar area. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">DECEMBER 2016:</span></b><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> Infused Arts takes a winter break. No creative gatherings. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"></span><br />
<u><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">What does Infused Arts look like in 2017?</span></u><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">That is a very good question. As Pastor Brian shared at The Collective last week, he's uncertain as well. I do know that LW will not seek to hire a replacement for me anytime soon. As always, when someone leaves a position here, the leadership reevaluates the position, the ministry, the hours needed, etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">With the construction beginning, God willing, in April and running through the rest of the year, many programs will be halted due to no usable space, noise, dust, and all the other joys of renovations. This is something to keep in mind through 2017 as it will affect all the ministries of Living Word in some significant way. For The artists and writers, maybe that means moving the gatherings off site. The leaders and I are dreaming about places should that happen. You'll be kept in the loop for sure! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I'm pretty sure that this blog site will be detached from LW's website very soon. But I'll continue to keep you posted (or the leaders will) here at the blog. Check back soon or add your email to the box on the right hand column so you are alerted via email when there's a new post. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Please let me know if you have any questions. My email here at LW will be inactive shortly after my last day. I'd love to stay in touch with you guys! My original arts ministry, Vertical Creativity, will blossom into something new and amazing in the days and months to come. If you want to keep in touch, </span><a href="http://deannroe.com/who-i-am/contact-deann/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">please contact me here</span></a><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Well friends - it's not good-bye, but see ya later, maybe even soon! Know that each of you have enriched my life in ways unexplainable. Thank you and bless you! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Be in joy - deAnn Roe</span><br />

<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: #3b3838; font-family: "gill sans mt" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">I want to share some news with you. Since early summer God’s
been asking me this question: “Do you trust Me with your ministry?” I’d reply,
“Sure I do Lord! Of course.” But He kept asking me, over and over again... I
guess I wasn’t giving Him the answer He wanted. Finally, this simple yet deep
question opened up things in my heart that I didn’t know existed. I had always
seen myself (for the past 8 years anyhow) as the director of Infused Arts and
ONLY that. But what God showed me was that my ministry expands, and could
expand even more, <i>beyond</i> Infused Arts. That was rather exciting, yet
freighting to me. Then He started asking me that same question again, “Do you
trust Me with your ministry?” It was very clear this time He was asking me if I
trusted Him with Infused Arts. “Of course I do!” But that question kept coming
so again, He must not have liked my answer. Then He asked me if I trusted Him
enough for me to walk away from Infused Arts. “Uhhhhhhhhh, Lord, don’t ask me
to do that please!!!” He then replied, “But I’ve shown you other gifts you have
that can be applied to building up My Kingdom.” This unsettled and confused me.
But I had peace and came to a place in my heart and said, “Yes, Lord. I do
trust You.” </span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: #3b3838; font-family: "gill sans mt" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">A few months after these questions and days and days and days of
processing what He was showing and telling me, I get an unexpected job
offer…not in the arts. Strangely I was excited in my spirit about this
position. I wrestled with God daily on this possible job change. Yes, He’d
randomly asked me when I was overcome with anxiety, “Do you trust Me with your
ministry? You said that you do.” <b>Ouch</b>. So with fear and trepidation,
after months of praying and discerning, I decided to step WAY out of my comfort
zone to a place where I HAVE to trust God. And it’s scary exciting. Maybe you
know what I mean…? </span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: #3b3838; font-family: "gill sans mt" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">God just doesn’t want lip service from us. He bugged me with a
simple question for months. I finally my heart transformed and came to a place
to answer Him the way He wanted. However, that is not enough. He wants more. He
wants <i>action</i> to flow from our <i>words</i>. So, I said YES to that job
offer. With a heavy, <i>yet excited heart</i>, I gave my letter of resignation
to Pastor Brian yesterday. Oh my, the tears* Leaving Infused Arts and LW after
being on staff for SEVENTEEN YEARS!! Oh my! I’m a ball of insane mixed
emotions. I have to buy some waterproof mascara on my way home from work today!
</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: #3b3838; font-family: "gill sans mt" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">There is so much I want to say to each of you. You’ve enriched
my life in ways I can’t even describe. Seeing God open up your creativity or
encourage it in a bigger way has filled my heart with so much joy! I know I’m
called to be a creative catalyst and to create space for people to connect
deeply with God through their creativity and the arts. That will never change!
That’s who God’s made me to be. However, in this new season, this new position
as Next Steps Director at Praise Community Church in York (ironically LW’s
previous building, where I started), my creativity will be used in a new and different way. This
job will be STRETCHING indeed. Again, positioned to truly need God. And my
spirit is SO excited to be in this place of dependency upon Him. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: #3b3838; font-family: "gill sans mt" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">I’d love to share more with you and spend some time reflecting
on how God moved through Infused Arts, through you, through me over the past 8
years. So, at our next gathering for </span></div>

is <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">The Studio</b>. We have been exploring
the basic elements of art so far this year and on Thursday we’ll work with Line
& Shape. There is no fee for this session. We’ll work with markers and
colored pencils. Line and shape seems so, well – boring. But meshed with color
and texture (two other elements of art that we’ve studied so far), it will be
fun and exploratory. I hope you join us in the coffee bar from 6:30 to 8:30pm.</span></div>

pretty cool. Open Studio meets in the coffee bar at 6:30pm and is $6 if you use

<span class="_fbReactionComponent__eventDetailsContent fsl">Theme for April at The Collective: LIVE YOUR DREAMS, CHANGE THE WORLD.<div class="text_exposed_root text_exposed">
<div>
</div>
<div>
It's your nature to be creative. You <em><strong>are</strong></em> creative. The companion to creativity are the dreams and desires that God plants in our heart. Those dreams and desires are there to help build His Kingdom (yes, we have a role in that) and bring glory to God. </div>
<ul>
<li> What are those dreams and desires in your heart? </li>
<li> Are you entering into them? If not, when?</li>
<li> What keeps you from entering into them?</li>
<li> Do you believe that those dreams and desires have the potential to change the world? </li>
</ul>
<div>
Holding onto those dreams and desires is like getting a present for your birthday and never opening it....</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Come to <strong>The Collective</strong> on April 7, 6:30pm-8:30pm and we'll be diving <span class="text_exposed_show">into this rather large topic and it's our hope that you'll leave feeling encouraged (in courage!) to move out boldly in your dreams to be an agent of change for this broken and hurting world! </span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Bring your sketch book. Paper and colored pencils will be available for doodling and sketching. :) Which is always highly encouraged at The Collective!</div>

<br />
The Well is a self-guided sacred space prayer experience at <a href="http://www.lwccyork.com/" target="_blank">Living Word Community Church</a>. It's been up for one week and continues this week, concluding on Friday at 9pm. Above is the schedule, the times vary a bit each day. <br />
<br />
It's a beautiful space taking us into the Easter Story - but it's a broader look at that famous event. <a href="https://vimeo.com/159898682" target="_blank">Click here for a video tour</a> of this installation. Prayer guides are available to enhance your experience. Bring your bible and plan to be at The Well for 60 minutes or more. It's not a space you'll want to rush through. You escape the rush of life and enter The Well. <br />

<br />
What an incredible gathering of creatives of ALL genres at <strong>The Collective</strong> this month! It's amazing to see all the creative facets we have among us. So diverse, so beautiful. We had great discussion and teaching around how our creativity matters a LOT to God and His Kingdom. We did some collaborative art and some individual prayerful creative reflection. All in all - a fantastic evening! A dream come true! People waking up more and more to their identity in Christ and His amazing nature of creativity in us all. <br />
<br />
Below are more images from our first gathering. The next one is Thursday, March 3rd from 6:30-8:30pm in the coffee bar of <a href="http://www.lwccyork.com/" target="_blank">Living Word Community Church</a>. March's theme is surrendering our creativity to the One who is the source of it all and the watching what He does with it!! We have a creative and mindful exercise in store and visual artist Deborah Nell will share a bit on her journey the God and surrendering her creativity. You will be blessed and inspired by her stories, no doubt!<br />
<br />
Child care is provided but you need to register your little ones one week in advance. <br />
<a href="http://www.lwccyork.com/pages/page.asp?page_id=167486" target="_blank">Click here</a> then in the drop down register menu, click Infused Arts.<br />
<br />
If you are feeling a stirring in your soul for more creativity to be unleashed in your life, or want a biblical perspective on why our creativity matters so much to God, we invite you to <strong>The Collective</strong>. It's community. It's creativity. It's pressing into Father's heart for more of Him. It's so awesome... Hope to see you on Thursday, March 3rd!<br />

<strong>The Collective</strong> is a new Infused Arts community that will focus on our role as artists and creatives in God's Kingdom, have discussions around this and many other important topics.

Each month will have a different topic or theme. February is "Why Creativity Matters to God." <br />
<span class="fsl"><br />All genres of creativity are welcome!! For example; knitters, home chefs, fine artists, writers, poets, dancers, singer/song writers, musicians, graffiti and tattoo artists, hair stylists, photographers, digital artists, sculptures, wood-working, fiber art, sewing, drama... okay, I think you get the point. :) <br /><br /> Please join <strong>The Collective</strong>, a group of creatives hungry for more of the Lord and seeking first His Kingdom as it pertains to our art and creativity! <br /><br /> There is no fee for this gathering. Coffee will be on hand, indeed. See you February 4th at 6:30pm!<br /><br /> <em>KidCare</em> is provided but you must register your little ones a week before the event.

Due to the pending storm and the impossibility to nail down when it may arrive, we've decided to postpone tomorrow night's art reception to Friday, 1/29, 6pm to 8pm. One artist participating comes from Reading and a few more from Lancaster and I know some of you plan to come and you drive from Baltimore and Harrisburg - I don't want to put any of you at risk should the snow begin to fall earlier than what's expected. </div>

The January/February exhibit, <strong>Art = Ministry</strong> is up and looking amazing. The stories are even more amazing! <a href="http://www.lwccyork.com/uploads/JanFeb-2016-gallery.pdf" target="_blank">Click here to read a copy of The Heart Behind the Ar</a>t booklet and prepare to be blown away by how God uses surrendered artists to minister to our broken and searching world. Below are a host of photos of the exhibit. <br />
<br />
<strong>Reminder</strong>: The Art Reception is Friday, January 29, from 6pm to 8pm in the Common Grounds Gallery. It's going to be an evening jam-packed with creativity! There will even be art tables for you to explore your artistic abilities. And of course, you'll hear from the artists, there will be a live painting demo, and our friend, Ramon will be here to stylize your name into graffiti. This is a family friendly evening. Snacks and coffee will be provided too. Hope you can make it!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Ministry is allowing God to use your gifts and abilities for the benefit of others, so that they may experience the love of Jesus through you. Gifts and abilities differ from person to person, as God uniquely makes us all for His glory. Some people minister through teaching. Some minister through music. Some minister through hospitality. Some minister through listening. You get it—the list goes on and on. In what ways does God use you to minister to others? Something I discovered powerfully over the past several years is how God uses some to minister through their art. This exhibit has many beautiful examples of just that—stories of how God touches lives through surrendered artists and creatives.<br />
<br />
<strong>Join us on Friday, January 29nd from 6pm to 8pm for the "art = ministry" exhibit artist's reception.</strong> Artists will share briefly how God uses their creativity to minster to others, (these stories are powerful!), and enjoy seeing examples of their art while sipping Seattle's Best coffee and munching on snacks with new friends and old friends. We will have art tables for you to explore your own creativity and even a few of what I'm calling, roaming artists. You'll have come to see what I mean! It will be a creatively-charged evening to say the least! And it's a family-friendly event.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
December 22, 2015 - the winter solstice - the shortest day, the longest night.</div>
<br />
I didn't sleep well last night. It felt like I was out of bed more than in bed. At one point, around 2:00am I thought, <em>I'm so awake, I wish it was morning</em>. But I went back to bed and eventually fell asleep. Sometimes the night feels endless and the longing for the break of day leads to desperation. Spiritually speaking, I've been there too...in long periods of darkness due to disappointment, disillusionment, confusion, loneliness, loss, frustration, physical illness, or a broken relationship. Sometimes it's even hard to hear Father's voice in those dark moments. And it often feels endless, just like my experience last night - <em>when will the morning come?</em><br />
<em></em><br />
If you find yourself wandering in the longest night, remember that morning always comes. Always. God set boundaries to day and night. He is faithful. Day always comes. The same is true for you. Your longest night, spiritually speaking, has a boundary. But while you are in the midst of the darkness, look around, what do you see? Can you sense God's presence with you (even if His voice seems muffled)? What are the little blessings you experience despite the darkness? What rays of hope are beginning to sliver the darkness? Look around, you may be surprised with what you see.<br />
<br />

<br />
As we approach the holidays - the celebration of the birth of our King - the excitement of ringing in the new year, to many this is a season of HOPE and JOY. To others, it's a reminder of what they no longer have...for those of you in that season, we hold you in prayer before the Lord. Hope comes. He came. And He is coming again. The longest night will be over and God will begin to expand the boundaries of day. And that begins tomorrow.<br />
<br />
Happy Winter Solstice and Merry Christmas. To you, may God's blessings fall heavy upon you in 2016. <br />

All of us here at Infused Arts are beyond exctied about the January|February 2016 exhibit at <a class="profileLink" data-hovercard="/ajax/hovercard/page.php?id=120328787982751" href="https://www.facebook.com/lwccyork/">Living Word Community Church</a>, <strong>art = ministry</strong>. We have 11 artists/creatives participating from York, Lancaster, and Berks counties...all with very diverse ways that God uses their art to minster to His people. <br />
<br />
We invite you to the Art Reception on Friday evening, January 22 from 6pm to 8pm at LWCC's coffee bar gallery - Common Grounds. Artists will share a bit about their experiences of God using their art to impact people's lives for His glory and you'll see examples of their art work. Refreshments and hot drinks will be enjoyed with conversation in a creative, Spirit-filled atmosphere. We hope you join us! I know you will be inspired and see why our creativity matters so much to God. <br />
<br />
be in joy!<br />

We have been going through the painfully creative process of rebranding Infused Arts as we launch a new facet and rhythm to our monthly gatherings. It won't be long now before we launch with the new look. There is a lot going on behind the scenes and I can't wait to share all this with you! <br />
<br />
One thing I want to point out is that <strong>Infused Arts will <u>not</u> be meeting in January</strong>...no Write Space, no Studio. BUT come February, we are kicking off with the new program and rhythm that I mentioned above. Of course, we'll still have The Write Space and The Studio. We aren't taking anything away. In fact, God is adding to our ministry with this new gathering we are calling <strong>The Collective</strong> (which is going to be so awesome!).<br />

I promise, as soon as I have all the elements in place from our amazing communications department, I'll roll out the new look and let you in on the new rhythm and share in detail about The Collective and that it's going to be a hot spot for creatives of every genre.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />In February of this year, I came across a beautiful video on YouTube of a song sharing many of the names of God. I was so moved by this and began meditating on the sheer number of names He’s been given or declared as Himself in scripture. That’s when the idea for the Names of God exhibit came to me. How amazing it would be to invite artists and writers into a prayerful and intentional experience to encounter one of the many powerful names of God and create from that place of His presence. <br /><br />There were forty-five people who said yes to this spiritual and artistic challenge and we began meeting once a month from March through August. In these “NOG” gatherings we’d share our WIP (work in progress), pray for one another as we hit spiritual or creative obstacles, work on our pieces, or share our experiences of God as we created art or written pieces around His name. These gatherings were sacred, as God’s presence was tangible. He was pleased that we’d push into a project like this.<br /><br />Life hit some of the artists and writers very hard and a few of the original forty-five, reluctantly, had to step out of the project. However, we have thirty-seven exhibiting in this exhibit, which is pretty good after a six month, fairly intensive, creative project.<br /><br />I believe that this exhibit carries something special. Each piece, written or visual, was created in prayer, in God’s presence. I know the Holy Spirit flowed through each person to create the beauty you see and read here in this booklet. Take time to explore each facet of this exhibit. I know the Lord will move your heart to consider what name of God speaks to you.<br />

<strong></strong><br />
<em><strong>Pointillism</strong>= is a technique of </em><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Painting"><em>painting</em></a><em> in which small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image. </em><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_Seurat"><em>Georges Seurat</em></a><em> and </em><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Signac"><em>Paul Signac</em></a><em> developed the technique in 1886, branching from </em><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impressionism"><em>Impressionism</em></a><em>.</em><br />
<br />
Yes, at <strong>The Studio</strong> in September, using acrylics, we'll be exploring pointillism. We are so excited! <br />
<br />
The fee is $8 and that gets you an 12x16 stretched canvas (no canvas panel this time!) and paint/brushes. We will have photos from three or four of our photographers for you to choose from, or be in inspired by. Feel free to bring your own picture for inspiration if you prefer. <br />
