ODDS AND SODS

+ Just got the layout for the newspaper ad we'll be using for the opening. Meeting the Editor Tuesday morning and hoping for a great deal.

+ The Back To Church Sunday theme should grab the attention of Long Islanders, the majority of whom do have a church background - mainly Catholic.

+ Had our first taste of video worship today - that phrase doesn't do it justice. We'll be using downloads of worship sets from Lifechurch.tv some Sundays, so ran one in our Ronkonkoma service today and I am very happy with the feedback.

+ Visited Integrity Christian Fellowship and Lamb's Chapel this morning to talk about our venture. Great reception - kingdom-minded pastors.

+ Four weeks from now our first service will be history.

+ Need to get a sound board this week. That's about the last major item - I think.

+ We're going to start parking our customized church van outside the Mastic Theater all day. It will serve as a billboard for us.

+ I could write a book about everything that has fallen into place already, but the best stories are still to come - changed lives.
