WOW!
Our bunch outdid themselves Valentine's night.

We had an evening of dinner, jazz music (live band) roses, picures, and all the trimmings.

The dinner was a catered affair.....

The jazz band was a quartet (guitar, keys, bass, drums.) All A list Nashville musicians....featuring one of our own praise team members who sings that stuff great!!!!

We heard all the old stuff....and enjoyed seeing everyone dress up and look pretty....

This will be a bridge event next year!

A bridge event is when the church sponsors an event ....our members buy extra tickets and give them to unchurched friends to acquaint them with our church.

Every one we have had has resulted in new members. But we always do a "dry run" to make sure we have our act together.

I promise it works. That is part of the vision of this church. Everything we do has to meet the criteria of outreach (evangelsm) We don't do anything much just for "the church family" We do a few things but not many that are not bridge events.

We should all be building bridges to the unchurched and unsaved. When I think about bridge building it brings to mind this painting by Monet.

The simple beauty of a foot bridge. The bridges that we build need not be spectacular. Most will be simple, and in their simplicity, beautiful.
