Two events at my house in May!

I always have people ask “will there be room?” the answer is “absolutely”! Stacey and I have the privilege of living in a home on 52 acres. Lots of open fields and plenty of room for people and fun. We built our house with the intentions of sharing it with our church family. Our last leadership gathering we hosted 53 people and had plenty of room. So if you are considering coming, don’t hesitate, just come on!

INFUSION:
May 9th leadership gathering. Exact itinerary is not yet concrete but could look like…Talk sessions discussing Craig Groeschel’s book IT. Technology will let Craig teach two sessions over the plasma. Dave Morley will be teaching a session live. I will be teaching a session and outlining our new missional direction for Mercy’s Cross.

Stuff that will be unveiled at INFUSION. Our new missional direction, our new website, and the construction drawings for our new facility in Sherwood! You don’t want to miss this!

Fun will include-Water gun fight (BYOWG-Bring your own water gun), Go cart racing, and some team competition stuff! You will leave dirty, and abused, but filled with vision and a big smile!

The food theme is Italian. No breakfast this time but we are going to do a killer lunch. It is pot luck so bring your best Italian dish.

Sorry: No kids at this deal-e-o.


H2O Hollow 2 Holy-BAPTISM:
May 17 again at my crib (in my yard really). We want to break our all time record for number of people baptized in a single baptism. Last year we set a new record with 58 baptized at a single baptism. Our goal is 100. This is a joint campus baptism.

Fun-After the baptism we are going to shoot for a badminton world record! Most people playing a single badminton game! Imagine 300+ people playing badminton at our giant badminton net! It is going to be awesome….Bring your badminton equipment!

Food-BBQ we are bringing in a whole hog! And the three D’s are in effect bring a Dish, Dessert, Drinks!

Later Night Possibility (my wife says no but….)
That night we are going to watch a movie on the big screen in our yard. Bring a blanket we’ll pop some pop corn it will be great! It’s like a drive in movie, without the car! If we can’t have the movie on that night we will do it later in the summer!
