What I did on my summer vacation

This past Sunday we got a chance to visit Life Church's Wellington, Florida campus.
They are in a series called "At the Movies." I was very impressed with how creative the Wellington Campus presented the movie theme. This particular campus chose the Pirates of the Caribbean theme. They had volunteers in costume. They gave out their bulletins at a ticket booth. They gave away popcorn, candy, hot dogs cokes, etc
The band did a nice job, and the people were friendly. They were having some lighting problems, but other than that it was smooth.
The message was via video but it wasn't distracting. It would take some getting used to, but apparently it wasn't deterring growth because they had a decent crowd (we were at the 9:30am service. I was told that the 11:00am was better attended)
I spoke briefly to the campus Pastor who gave me a little of the church's history before hooking up with Life Church.
They did a very good job of branding the Life Church name. Although they were meeting in a High School, they did an amazing job of decorating.
Overall a great experience.
As we move toward the future here at Foothills Community Church we are looking at some possible locations for a second site.
