Whew! We finished up VBS (Vacation Bible School) tonight at Cowan Mill Church and I’m tired! I didn’t get to go Monday night because of work but I went last night and tonight and it was pretty fun. I didn’t participate much last night b/c I thought it was cheezy and my VBS years were over, but tonight I had more interactivity and fun. I took my Western duster and hat and walked down the VBS hallway with kids staring at me like “who u be??!” haha. And I took my 6-foot Samurai sword for Pastor Kaplan to look at, which was also cool.
Well, Pastor Tom (Kaplan) introduced me to John, the multimedia guy for the church (who has a pre-website drawn up for the church). Well, that was a shoot-down all in itself but still we chatted about each of our methods of web publishing/designing and I tried to convince him to use ANH/CHI but I think he was reluctant to hear or have a “newbie” at the church jump in and start (or take over) something. And I agree, I wouldn’t feel too obliged if john doe came in and tookover something at C4L, no no. THAT kindof involvement only comes with prayer…which I’ve had to learn the hard way to do.
So aftewards, I told Pastor Tom that I think he (John) was a bit reluctant to let me do the website, and that I also don’t do well in the web ministry with others and then Pastor Tom told me that it comes with time and that God’ll allow it if so, and I agreed to that. So Pastor Tom said for me to not be discouraged as John loves the church and wants to do the website (which I totally understand, that’s what I did for JABC). So Pastor Tom told me to not hold back with ideas and suggestions and for he and I to discuss them, if ever, and pray on them to see if the Lord wants whatever it may be to come about. So, in turn, IF God wants me to assist or primarily work with the website, then He will allow it, else He has something better in store and I need to accept that and be humble to that.
Well that’s it for now. I’m gonna rest before I have to go back to work tomorrow.
Much Love In Christ,
Andrew
