An Amazing Week

This week has been amazing.

• We finally finalized our contract on Monarch High School and signed our lease this week.
• We also started to receive our sound system in the mail that we ordered last week.  I didn’t really think that I would get excited about a sound system because that is typically what the worship leader gets all geeked up about but I am pumped about it.
• We had an awesome Dream Team meeting where we had at least 3/4 of our team at together (which is a first) and we started to dream what our first service would look like from children to hospitality to the inside of the auditorium.  We started to talk about all the systems and processes we need to have in place in a little over 4 weeks from now.
• We made a big dent in the $50,000 we still needed to raise when we received close to $7,000 in the mail this week and through online giving (thanks to all those who gave)!
• I got to have a great conversation with a guy who came to our Informational Meeting on Tuesday who was far from God and is interested in checking out our church some more.
• Ordered all of our letterhead, envelopes, business cards, bulletin shells and finalized our first direct mail piece that is going out to 75,000 homes.
• Got invited to write for a local magazine in their God Squad column about life, church and God that goes in over 100,000 homes.

God is doing some BIG things down here in Ft. Lauderdale and I am so excited to see what other GREATER THINGS he has in store for Coastal Community Church on September 13th at 10am as we launch this life-giving church.

I would love for you to get involved if your interested, and their are two ways of doing that:

• You can become part of the DREAM TEAM
• You can Give Financially

I would love for you to partner with us in launching Coastal Community Church September 13, 2009.
