It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... and not because we're on the backside of Black Friday, either.
Today was my first opportunity worship at CF Redland. I've blogged it. Cosy. Intimate. Coffeehouse atmosphere. Today I and a packed house at CFR got to experience it. The worship center was packed from wall to wall with people. (It was so crowded there were 6-10 people sitting in the worship center lobby for the length of the service). One of the natives at CFR (read: former member of First Baptist Church of the Redlands) made the comment to me "This many people here only happens at Christmas."
I hear what you're saying... "If it's wall-to-wall people then CF Redland doesn't need my help." NOT TRUE! In the coming weeks we're moving to two services, and we need plenty of volunteers down here. Construction on the children's area is already starting, and when we do a complete launch in 2008 we'll have plenty of room for you at CFR.
Carlos Lollett led a great, acoustic worship set. Rick taught and looked like he felt at home. The room was alive, receptive, vibrant...
I am continually impressed with CFRs Media crew. Met another one of their video/iMag guys, Justin... ends up I went to High School with him. The service went flawlessly. We integrated a Mac Laptop running ProPresenter, in about five minutes, and with 10 minutes of training/orientation - we were set.
Eric's hyped about the photo too! Check out his blog.
God, thank you for allowing us to be part of your plan in Miami. Thank you for the opportunity to serve.
