ABOUT
The Netzer Co-Op lives life together both as a spiritual community and as an organizational community. As a spiritual community we seek to create practices and rituals that will transform us into the people God is calling us to be. As an organization, we are seeking to lead a movement of love, hope and healing in our circle of relationships.
There are no members - only participants. What's the difference? We embrace a radical sense of hospitality that says all are welcome. You already belong to the co-op, because you are one of God's Beloved. Our community life is guide by participants who give back with their gifts, creativity and support.
Covenant Participants are friends of the community who have commited to guide the vision and mission of the community through an expressed commitment of time, creativity and financial support. Our Covenant Partcipants guide the funding and steward the resources of the community.
Interested in coventant with us, contact Tim or Bri.
Our Staff
Brianna Morris | brianna@netzerco-op.org
Curator
Brianna Morris-Brock grew up in small town outside of Houston called
Lake Jackson. She then attempted to be a good and studious person and
go to college! So far she has attended Brazosport Community College,
WIttenberg University, Texas State University, and Austin Community
College. Eventually she will gradutate with a BFA in Studio Art:
Painting. She has been working in ministry of some form or fashion
since 2001. And was a youth director for an ELCA congregation for 3
years.
She makes horrible first impressions, and has a very strange sense
of humor, but she can be kind of cool....once you get to know her.
Brianna loves to play video games, throw a frisbee, practice yoga,
watch her dog leap into the river, lay in the sun, and hang out with
her family. She currently lives in west Austin with her husband Matt,
dog Jack, and cat Buddy
Tim Snyder | tim@netzerco-op.org
Curator
Tim spent the most of his formative years around the New Orleans area and moved here for college. Growing up, Tim was a freaking Lutheran Poster Child participating in all things that Lutheran youth do. In college, he co-founded Intermission - an alternative worship for young adults.
In 2007, Tim was part of the group that launched The Netzer Co-Op. Since then, he has served as curator and community developer. In addition to his post at the co-op, Tim co-facilitates the emergent cohort in San Antonio, is an active networker, writer-editor and blogger.
Tim holds the Bachelor of Arts in Theology from Texas Lutheran University and is a graduate student pursing the Master of Divinity at Luther Seminary (St. Paul, MN) where he is part of a Distributed Learning cohort.
All together he talks too much, generally is unrealistically creative and at the end of the day we don’t take him too seriously (it brings him down to earth).
