How To Find Happiness
Sunday Retrospective - May 11, 2008
Interesting morning…
- Our children’s music program (we call it WAK - Worship Arts for Kids) did a short musical for our worship time called “We Like Sheep”.
- Because the stage was covered with AstroTurf, plants, and styrofoam mountains, there was no room for a band. We used an iWorship DVD to lead folks in an opening song (Chris Tomlin’s Forever). It went surprisingly well.
- We completely restructured the room seating - from three sections, two aisles to TWO sections with one center aisle. Also set up less chairs. We thought the room looked much fuller, and people seemed to be more engaged and connected with each other. We’ll see what kind of blowback we get.
- After a long weekend of meetings, the elder board voted unanimously to bring our number one pastor candidate into town. He’s coming next weekend, to preach at a special service Sunday night and hang out the next day for meet & greet. He’ll come Memorial Day weekend, and hang at our church picnic. Assuming everything goes well, we’ll vote as a church at the beginning of June. It’s still top-secret…we didn’t tell the church his name, as he’s a senior pastor and we don’t want to jeopardize his current gig if this doesn’t work out.
- Anna looks cute in sheep ears. I should have taken a pic.
Fight Malaria, Get A Cool Shirt!
Hat tip to Collide Magazine for posting this…
Through tomorrow, a blog called The Plow is giving away a pretty sweet t-shirt if you’ll donate some cash through Compassion International and Youth Specialties to buy mosquito nets to protect African children from malaria.
Watercooler Wednesday - Movie Chills
No, I’m not talking about horror movies or scary, “made-you-jump” moments. What’s the ONE scene in your favorite movie (or any movie) that sent the proverbial chills up your spine? And remember, slasher/horror movies are disqualified.
Maybe you have more than one. A few that come to MY mind…
- Return Of The King - Elrond gives the sword to Aragorn, and says “Put aside the Ranger. Become who you were born to be.”
- Field Of Dreams - Kevin Costner asks his father to play catch with him…and then the camera pulls back and you see miles and miles of headlights. Back to back chill moments.
- Star Trek: First Contact - End of the movie, the “first contact” alien is coming off his ship, and pulls back his hood to reveal that he’s a Vulcan (I know. I am such a geek).
- Monsters, Inc. - End of the movie, Sully’s face when he sees Boo again (I know. I am such a softie).
