What's happening in Clinton???

Update time. Let's see.

The few weeks since Christmas have been good ones for our church and for Julia and I. They have been tough ones too though.

1. Got back to our normal routines after a week (week and a half for Julia) in Ohio, and a weekend in Duncan.

2. Began planning for the 2008 year for the church.

3. Had our 1st annual planning meeting as a church and we made the following decisions.

a. Begin new Sunday Night Home groups every 1st Sunday of the month.

b. Update our youth program (jr and sr. high) to be more beneficial for our teens.

c. Scheduled four "Super Sundays" as attendance push Sundays.

d. Approved mass advertisment for these "Super Sundays"
(ie. radio, postcards, newspaper, etc.)
e. Made commitment to upkeep of website.

f. Made commitment to step up our efforts to invite people to church and ordered
buisness cards as tools to help invite and inform people.

g. Made decision to incorporate praise and worship choruses with the hymns durring our
Sunday morning service.

4. Julia and I began planning for a trip to Orlando in March with her family.

5. Julia began looking for a new job.

All in all hectic, fun, crazy, exciting, sad, happy...pretty normal.
