Cody got back to me and told me how Northstar is reaching out to the community in the upcoming weeks, but didn't mention what he thought could still be improved or initiated.
He said that Northstar has helped out with patients at Fairview Homes where people with mental and physical illnesses live (similar to a nursing home) and have redone the rooms there. Northstar has also made an impact on the homeless in Blacksburg by helping out, in particular, with two families by helped them get back on their feet by giving them work in the church office such as painting, or giving them rides whenever they need it. One of the father's in one of the families has attended the Northstar service the past 3 Sundays which is also really interesting. Finally Cody told me in December Northstar will be having church at the Lyric in downtown Blacksburg. It will be a Christmas celebration that the entire community will be invited to and there will be Christmas themed events such as Santa Clause being there.
To me this seems like Northstar already has reached out to the community in multiple ways so I still am unsure of what topic to do my assignment on.
I replied to Cody in a final effort to find something that needs improvement that hasn't already been acted upon, but until then I would like to build off of what Northstar has already planned.
Since Northstar is organizing the Christmas service/celebration and inviting the entire community to the Lyric, I think it would be appropriate to make flyers. I would find out more details about the event and let students on campus be aware of the event. It will be easy for students to attend because it is downtown and not off campus at Blacksburg Middle School (like a normal Sunday service). This is still tentative, but when more information comes I will post it to my blog.

It sounds like he might have misheard your question. Let's see what he says in reply. Will you see him tomorrow?
I think helping with the advertising effort for the Christmas service is a great idea. You might even talk with him about that and see if they might use what you create. See what kinds of things they might want.
And then write to me about genres. If you help them create flyers how can you also add something with a bit more text to the project?
He never replied : ( I have more information on the Christmas service though so I'm sticking to that. Still don't know how I am going to add more text to the project.
