Visio Dei Birthday and Business

On Sunday night, November 4th, at 7pm, we are going to be holding a
'Visio Dei Annual Report/Celebration Thing'. This is really code for
what used to be called a 'b*s*n*ss m**t*ng' but I can't bring myself
to call it that so we are going to have cake and celebrate the fact
that God has let us be a church for a year.

However, at this Celebration, we will have some time where we talk
about where we are as a church plant and where we are going. We'll
cover how things are going financially, how we're structured for
accountability and how that will change in the next 1-2 years, and
what major issues lay ahead for us. We'll also answer any and all
questions that people want to ask.

Please let your home groups know ASAP. This is only a week and a half
away, but I wanted to get it done before I go to Israel because after
I get back we run into the holidays and this still gives us two
Sundays to let people know about it.

Thanks,
Jeff

Welcome All Ye New Bloggers

To all you who are new to this arena of communication, I want to exend my warmest welcome to what I kindly refer to as the blogosphere. I rather enjoy this medium as it allows me to express my thoughts in a place where they are documented and I can return to them if I choose.

I hope that you all will find this blog to be a useful tool to share ideas and thoughts. Remember the blog does not generate new content on its own. It will only be as good as we make it. So, feel free to share what you're learning, to rant about whatever it is that's got you all worked up, or to simply share what's on your mind.

I look forward to hearing from you all.
