Long time no post...but, heh....

Well, hello everyone that cares about Th3 Waters! The summer has come and even though I have been extremely busy with getting ordained and speaking at a youth camp all last week, I am back and I am even more excited about Th3 Waters than I ever have been! Sure the summer is a hard time to get regular attendence to anything..but so be it...bring it on... I am so excited about what is going on...and we are about to attempt to do something that the typical church plant could never do: plant a church, start and develop a core leadership team , and train future OG leaders all in the......SUMMER!

---------------------

OK where to start...well how about the latest? I got off the phone with Design District the guys making our website! Needless to say...the first two screens that they produced to give us all an idea of what will be the design of the website...are simply AMAZING!!!!

I wish I could show them to you...but oh well, I hope to be able to show all the work someday on the website to show yall what all went into the design and creation of a logo, website, ect... almost like a making of DVD for a website... I might give lots of people a good idea about what goes into the creation...but also the amount of hard work DD has put into the website...and I talked with them that maybe in the future we can continue to make the website updated and continue the big dreams of what the site could be the way we all would love to see it...but I am telling yall you will be blown away with the end result! I am meeting with them next week to go over the content requirements and then they can start to really pull together the design and the content.

----------------------

We have now officially started inviting the members of the core leadership team for Th3 Waters! This is great news and most of the people that I have talked too are very excited about it all...I will spend some time with really understanding what will be asked of each invited person so they can really make a serious covenant to Th3 Waters and what God is doing in this ministry! so that will be going on soon and we hope to have our first meetings in July!

-------------------

We will be officially starting up 2-3 OGs from Florence contacts soon! So, there is lots of prep work involved, and lots of personal meetings with the potential OG discussion leaders! please be in prayer for this one...

------------------

also, I will be contacting the video filming guys soon to start filming the 1st OG intro movies in July! I am very excited about this and to see if it is even going to be feasible to pull them off on a weekly basis! I am still learning the video editing program on the Mac! it is going slow...but just like any computer program it always starts out slow and gets much faster the most time you spend!

====================

Things are going great...and I am so excited about it all! Also, Gary the Sr. Pastor @ Florence UMC preach about Th3 Waters Sunday before last...and he got a ton of comments about how they understood Th3 Waters and we excited about it!!! Very needed and much appreciated!

Please Please Please KUTPs!!!!!!!!!
