Last Sunday, we held our second of three preview services at the Floridian Ballroom. This time we didn't have a group from out of town there to help us out so it was pretty much on our shoulders. That being said, I couldn't have been more pleased with the atmosphere that was created. Kids City looked great and the room where the Celebration Service was held looked a million times better than the first week.
Here's a few more thoughts now that I've had time to digest the day:
1. We had two new guests both of whom came because they received our first postcard. The great thing about that is the postcard specifically invited people to launch Sunday, January 27. Both went online and saw we had a preview service and decided to come check us out early!
2. Alex, Raul, Mike and Andres sounded great. Rodolfo did a remarkable job on the board too. I am absolutely loving the band God is pulling together for The Pursuit. It just reflects the culture here beautifully!
3. Erin, Linda and the team in Kids City is knocking the setup out of the park.
4. The Info Booth Janie has created looks stinking cool.
5. Our First Impressions Team (you might call them Guest Services) is beyond what I ever imagined we could pull of. Bob, Paul, Ali, Klara, and the other Bob have really elevated their game.
6. My favorite moment of the service was when we whipped out our brand-spanking-new translation equipment. We had two gentlemen who were able to understand the message clearly because Alex did such a great job translating.
