The new series and six screens.

Three weeks ago we started a new series on Sunday nights. We are talking about the invisible spiritual world that impacts the visible one. We got the whole idea from Andy's Stanley series TWISTED that he did at North Point Community Church. We are talking about how this invisible world twists the truths about life, pain and relationships in order to push people away from God. It's been great so far. People seem excited and challenged.

We came up with a pretty cool idea for the stage. We made six screens, put them up in the back of the stage and projected video on them via one projector. Basically, when you look at the stage you think that there are six different screens that work independently. At one time each screen will show a part of the same video and at other times all different images. We had people ask us: Did you buy six plasma screens? It was pretty cool and impressive. The idea was to get a look of the headquarters of the organization that watches the world where we live and twists the truth. I think it turned out pretty good.

Two new bands at Metro.

Last Saturday we had our youth event Metro. We invited two bands to play and they were awesome! They invited so many friends - the place was packed even an hour before the concert started. We had about 180 people there. The show was great - the technical support was really good, girls who served coffee and tea were smiling and welcoming, and the performance was the best ever! 

But the most wonderful thing was that after the concert was over our church people were at every table - though it wasn't coming from the organization, it was their own initiative. I was really proud of our people, cause they understand that in the end it's not about show - it's all about building relationships. 

Now I feel free to organize any event or a show, knowing that our people will do their part - build relationships.
