Tim A. Cummins @ 8:32 pm  

I spoke at two Sunday School classes at First Baptist Atlanta this morning. They’re class was called, “Gap 57.” They were 6th graders! The classes were fun. I like that age group.

I only had to speak for the first part of the Sunday School hour so I was able to hear George Werwer speak during the service. He’s the founder of Operation Mobilization and a really incredible guy. He wears the same map jacket that has become a second skin to me. He’s one of the best mission speakers around. His sermons sometimes border on being racey! Imagine!

After church I loaded up all the grills and took them over to Perimeter. I thought I had a meeting in Gainesville tomorrow morning so I thought I really needed to do it today. Turns out now didn’t really matter but I’m glad I got it done!

Now I can spend time working on my Board report. I have all the info together, I just need to put it in one form. This year we’re going to a near paperless Annual Report. I realized “why am I spending all this money printing up all this stuff? We can have it on our computer instead.” I just need to do some number crunching.

I spent an hour working on a press release about Impact Atlanta for FBA and the Christian Index. It’s supposed to go out the 22nd.

Need to work on editing the video I shot for Impact Atlanta.

First Baptist Atlanta hosted Impact Atlanta 2007. We had over 500 people help us “Take the Church, To the People!” We fed hot dogs, made balloon animals, painted faces and shared the Gospel! Over 100 people accepted Christ including a mother, her daughter and the grand daughter! Sweet!

The debriefing was really special with story after story of incredible experiences, God providing translators exactly when and where we needed them.

Really a high point of the year.
