Baby Luke’s Adventure at Kid U Ohio!

Luke and Dad hangin’ out and roaming around the conference. Well, it was a crazy weekend but a lot of fun. There are still lots of pictures to go through, but since Luke was so excited to go to his second Kid U, I thought I’d post some pictures of his adventures. I had NO idea how many of the attendees would be greeting him by name as they arrived. I guess more people read my blog than I knew! So, by popular demand, here are some more Baby Luke pics: Too Sexy for my Shirt! (Kid U morning at the hotel) Me and My New Bear! (Gift from Pastor Kim!) Awana be in Awana! (Awana my diaper changed too!) As you can see by Baby Luke’s Awana Uniform, he is a big fan of Awana. (This Commander uniform was hand made for him by Commander Teri at Village Church!) I think he signed up at least three new churches for Awana while working their booth! Star Struck with Mary Rice Hopkins. (or is it the spotlights?) Mary Rice Hopkins held him while singing a beautiful song about babies. He got a little star struck – it was rather funny…

Baby Luke Headed to Kid U Ohio!

What is Luke doing? Why, he is choosing his workshops for Kid U in Ohio next weekend! He’s excited about the preconference Creativity Blitz and all the awesome presenters that he can learn from. So he is studying the schedule, wondering where he will lodge, checking out the directions and planning to register soon! Don’t have a brochure? You can download one here! OK, now that my director of web operations is proud of all my shameless marketing links, what is the REAL reason Luke wants to go to Kid U? Because it is where he first met me! Yes, it was at Kid U Chicago, this past March that I met this little baby boy for the first time, and as you can see, he loved me at first sight: Well, ok, maybe not… but it is so fascinating to me that at the time of this picture, I had NO IDEA that I would be adopting this precious (screaming) little boy. He wasn’t so excited about Aunt Meepa either! (at least not in this picture) And he even cried for his mom-to-be, though, again, Sara had NO IDEA at the time of this picture that we would soon…

The Missionary Game! How many villages will YOU reach?

The Jungle is Calling…. PLAY: http://www.themissionarygame.comYou have 30 days to get the Gospel to as many villages as possible! But, BEWARE of many dangers! What do you do when confronted by a Lion?!?! (I got eaten three times before I remembered Daniel!) PRAY! (or hit the ‘P’ key!) and the lion falls asleep! Watch the church being built and the happy natives who get a copy of the Bible and the supplies they need to survive! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

Introducing the Senior Pastor Cam!

At our pastors/elders planning meeting last week, we came up with a great idea that is sure to sweep the country! As our church is growing, we are talking about the options for handling growth and the possibility of a video-venue service – live music/etc. in the gym and then the message from the pastor on screen from sanctuary. (Just in discussion mode, VCBers, no set plans yet) ANYWAY, someone mentioned that to make the video sermon enjoyable to watch, it would be important to offer several different camera angles rather than just one static camera showing one boring view from the back. THATS WHEN IT HIT ME! I blurted out, “THE DAVE CAM!” I slipped out to our Kids Church backstage and retrieved a helmet mounted webcam that I hooked up several years ago for Kids Church (where what/who I looked at appeared on big screen!) and returned to the serious pastor/elder meeting and plopped it on my boss’s head. Pastor Dave modeling the prototype “Dave Cam” I tried to convince the group that this was a fantastic idea! Not only would it create a great alternative view of the service, but it would provide a view of the…

Invisible People – NAME THAT MOVIE!

OK, this is just TOO COOL!! First of all, DOWNLOAD THIS EXCEL DOCUMENT. Then, open it, and try to see if how many of the movies you can figure out with the characters faces removed! For example, here is one that was easy for me: Um, these two men dressed in black were easy too: and this guy dressed in yellow: How many can you get?? It’s pretty amazing, if you give an incomplete answer, it will ask for more info, such as this one: Just type in the movie name in the top cell and hit ‘tab’ and the next cell will tell you if you are correct or not. DISCLAIMER: I’m not endorsing any movies that are ‘bad’ or rated ‘R’ – I mean, I don’t even know what half these movies ARE, but I am curious if anyone can get them all right, or who can get the most correct! USE COMMENTS TO PUT MOVIE NUMBER AND ANSWER – so don’t peek at comments until you GIVE UP!!! (so far I have 17 correct)
