BITS AND PIECES FROM THE WAR ROOM
Had an excellent pastoral team meeting this morning and covered a lot of ground as we planned the transition to The Regal Cinema.
+ We figure we need to do a lot of clearing out in the existing storage room we're using at the UA. Will start that Sunday and continue next Wednesday. We sure have accumulated a lot of stuff!
+ Our Exit Brunch on August 5th should be a lot of fun. We talked about the menu - WeightWatchers beware!!!
+ Looks like we will have one final baptismal service before we leave. Three people have asked about baptism, so we've added that to the schedule for our final Sunday.
+ Seems like we have a truck lined up - 26'. I'm just not sure if that will hold all our stuff.
+ Staging is really a must. otherwise with the stadium meeting, you only see the people at the front from the waist up. While that might be a good thing in some cases, optimum visibility demans we have staging.
+ We'll have a lot better picture of what we can do after our gift day on Sunday. We're praying!
+ Getting a park in Ronkonkoma for a Labor Day community event has proved impossible. One doesn't want groups bigger than 150; another doesn't permit inflatables and the third works on a first come first served basis. If we turn up there at noon with all our equipment, we might well find another large group there ahead of us.
+ We listed 20 guys we're going to approach to help us organize getting the theater ready each week. If we can streamline set-up and get an even larger team of volunteers, we could start the whole thing a little later on a Sunday.
+ And the big news - since we don't have to be out of this theater until 12.00 noon, we're going to go with a 10.00am service time. More sleep Saturday nights for all!!!
