Location: Long Island, New York, United States

I'm the lead pastor of a great and very unconventional church - Church At The Movies, with campuses in Ronkonkoma and Mastic, NY - and I love doing what I do. We have hundreds of fellow radicals in our congregations who, like me, are committed to doing church for the unchurched. Totally apart from my church involvement, I work a few hours a week as a Weight Loss Consultant for Weight Watchers, which I thoroughly enjoy.

THEY WANT US


Went to a meeting of Ronkonkoma Chamber of Commerce this evening to get to know some of the folks over that way. Met some great people.


Had an outstanding time. Got to introduce myself to the group of around 35 local business people and chat briefly about the church.


The main focus of the evening was to discuss the Street Fair they have planned for Sunday September 2nd, that they expect to attract a crowd of between 5,000 and 10,000, based on last year's figures.


When the Street Fair was raised, the Chamber President turned to me and said, Pastor you should have a table there to get the word out and since you're a church, you won't need to pay for the space.


We were in the process of organizing a couple of events of our own the day before, but I guess we'll forget those and go for doing something that will get us really noticed at the Street Fair.


That's an amazing opportunity and they really want us to be there.


We're going to love Ronkonkoma!
