My new friend Jenn Collins posted a comment on the blog yesterday.
Jenn is one of the most refreshing people I've met since moving to South Florida. She grew up in the area and now serves as Communications Director for Oasis Church.
Jenn has mobilized her smarts quickly for her young years, heading up one of the cleanest and clearest church re-brandings I've seen. Most people in the area would identify Oasis Church ten times more quickly than Church of Pembroke Pines, though it's only had the new name a few months.
I asked Jenn to meet over coffee this week to see if she'd be up for getting together a group of church communicators to network in the area. As God has gone before me in many other ways, He already took care of this as well. Jenn had already planned the first meeting of such a group and started a blog. I love that!
I don't know what I would have done without my network of friends in the Indianapolis Church Communications Roundtable. What began as a resource sharing network quickly became a support group - sharing the joys and frustrations of ministry, marriages, babies and career decisions. Thank God for knowing we need such a group and for putting it on Jenn's heart to start one down here.
So, if you are a ministry communicator in South Florida, join the group. The first meeting is this Saturday at 11 at Oasis.
This post made me nostalgic. Aww. I miss you, Janie. God is going to rock south Florida through you!
