Re: [89attendees] The experience as new comer for Sunday

[Abdussalam Baryun <[e-mail]>]

Hi John,

Thanks for your advise. I was very happy to meet you yesterday. I wanted to
see if the body leaders will come closer to the new comers even 10 minutes
within the week while the new comers are gathered together group and those
leaders be seen in such gather. I thought the tutorial was a good gathering
but still there is time for another quick gathering if possible. However,
it is just my thought that if newcomers see leaders in the first meet then
I expect that they will like to continue coming.

One new comer I spoke to is a ISOC fellow and he got an introduction
session group gathering, but I was not invited, he met some leaders of ISOC
but I needed to look for them, but I did not have enough time while non new
comers were interacting as well to leaders.

Best Regards
Abdussalam
