Thanks for your patience with us as we continue to make a few changes to our communication process. We're still trying to make the transition to regularly updating this blog, and delivering information to you that way! We'll send you the link every time we update, so that you can keep current.
ALL TEAM MEETING
We've got some very important information to give you at our next all team meeting on Tuesday, July 14, 6:30-8:00 p.m. in the cafe. Over the last couple of months, God has moved our leaders a little further down the path towards Vision 2018. These new developments will directly affect the way that our teams do ministry in the not-too-distant future. Come and see what we mean.
Also, we'll be holding a tutorial of our new web-based software that we're using to schedule and deliver charts and music to you--planningcenteronline.com. I know that a number of you have had questions about it. Here's your chance to ask them, and to get some training on how to use the software.
So, come and enjoy some food cooked on the grill. See you then.
ALL TEAM RETREAT
Save the date: Saturday, August 22nd! We'll be heading over to Pine Lake Christian Camp for a one-day retreat that Saturday. It's just 45 minutes away, which makes it a convenient location for us to gather off-site without the burden of a long trip. AND, it's the Saturday before our Outdoor Service on August 23rd, so no worries about any conflicts with your team's rotation.
In case you've never been to one of our retreats before, here's what you can expect:
1. Great food in a comfortable, come-as-you-are environment.
2. Intimate, authentic worship.
3. Pointed times of teaching and discussion.
4. Guided individual times with God.
5. Important times of connection with the vision and future of Programming and Production ministry at Prairie Lakes Church.
6. A chance to form relationships with some good people in a way that you normally don't get a chance to.
More specific details are on their way soon. If you decide to join us, you can plan on still having your evening free; we'll be back before supper time. Let us know if you're coming by RSVP'ing to Shari at shari.ford@prairielakeschurch.org.
NEW ROTATIONS
Our current round of rotations for both music and tech teams ends on the weekend of July 18-19. We'll have the new schedule finalized this week. We'll send it to you via email, and also make it available for you to be picked up at our July all team meeting.
PLANNING CENTER ONLINE
Like we already mentioned above, we took another step towards using our web-based software, planningcenteronline.com. We'll be using this site to:
1. Manage our scheduling calendar for both programming and production teams;
2. Deliver charts to our music teams; and
3. Deliver music to our music teams.
Each of you received a welcome email about a month ago from the website which gave you your login information. If you need that email resent to you, just email Shari at shari.ford@prairielakeschurch.org. Once you use that info to log in, you can change your password to something that you can remember.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation and patience with us as we make this transition. In the long run, it'll be much better for our ministry as we continue to grow and get better.
