I hope my theology is correct, because it appears to me that the whole concept of working in sync with others begins way back in Genesis 1 with the revelation of the fact that God is a Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Of course that theme continues right through the Bible into the Gospels and the book of Acts where Jesus and the Apostles ministered with teams around them.
There is an amazing group of people helping in different ways to get our new campus under way and two of them made a huge dent in our preparations today.
Dottie and Liz got the printing of our door hangers under way - 4,000 done and 8,000 to go. They come in sheets of three, but once printed were separated and put into stacks of 350 for every delivery duo we have going out on Sunday September 6th.
With the printer going all day, Dottie began working out delivery routes for each of the afore mentioned duos, ensuring we cover every possible home in Mastic, Mastic Beach and Shirley. Then Liz worked at organizing the staffing of the Street Fair in Ronkonkoma on Sunday 6th with all the volunteers who have come forward to offer their help.
Tonight I'm meeting a couple of guys over at the theater and we'll work out our final arrangements with the owner so that we're ready to be up and running for our dry run on the 6th.
I guess the apostle Paul knew a thing or two when he told the Ephesian believers that the church grows through what every part brings to the table - not a literal translation, but my own!
