SUMMARY:KC Oasis Volunteers at Micah Ministry
DESCRIPTION:MASKS ARE OPTIONAL. \n*Note: It’s okay if you can’t get there until 5:15-5:30. \nAt Kansas City Oasis our values are “People are more important than beliefs\,” “human hands solve human problems\,” and “meaning comes from making a difference.” In that spirit\, we partner with Micah Ministry to help feed and clothe those in need. \nMicah Ministry serves hundreds of people every Monday evening from 5:15-7:15. They help anyone\, regardless of race\, gender\, religious (or nonreligious) affiliation\, sex\, sexual orientation\, or any other trait. Come join us in helping our less fortunate neighbors. \nVolunteers will greet the guests\, serve food\, offer beverages\, fill clothing requests and help with litter control. If there are enough volunteers\, there may be the option to sort clothing.\nThe Micah Ministry is a religious organization\, which means that the event is started by an optional group prayer at the beginning. We have never been pressured to pray with them and they have always been glad to have us participate in their group. \nDue to COVID\, masks are required\, and the event is currently being held outside instead of in the dining hall. \nPlease meet in the parking lot behind the church\, where we will get our volunteer assignments. \nBy participating in this event\, you agree to abide by the Oasis Code of Conduct (http://www.kcoasis.org/about-oasis/code-of-conduct/).

SUMMARY:KC Oasis Sunday Gathering – Featured speaker: Matthew Rich\, "My Current State of Ignorance"
DESCRIPTION:Matthew Rich\, “My Current State of Ignorance” \nIn an early workshop version of his upcoming full special\, My Current State of Ignorance\, Matthew Rich invites audiences on a deeply personal and uproarious journey through his religious deconstruction\, mental health struggles\, and profound self-discovery. Blending introspective humor with playful silliness\, Matthew explores whether there’s anything from his religious upbringing that can be carried forward into this new chapter of his life. This candid and hilarious performance offers a raw preview of his evolving story\, from a boy who was once an heir to the kingdom of heaven to a neurodivergent man just trying to get through life without responding “you too” to a waiter’s “enjoy your food.” \nMatthew Rich\, a Kansas City-based comedian\, blends reflective storytelling and absurd silliness to craft his unique comedic style. Having performed alongside Derek Waters\, Michael Longfellow\, and Caleb Hearon\, he also produces the Strange Nights showcase at Strange Days Brewing Co. A featured performer at The Fountain City Comedy Festival who starred in Ben Folds’ music video for “Exhausting Lover\,” Matthew has also collaborated on projects with Elite Daily\, showcasing his versatile and engaging humor. He absolutely did not use chatGBT to write this bio. – written by ChatGBT \nBy participating in this event\, you agree to abide by the Oasis Code of Conduct (http://www.kcoasis.org/about-oasis/code-of-conduct/).
