Last night we opened GCC's New Normal projects with tours, Urban Swirl yogurt and an opportunity for everyone to write their prayers of consecration on the floors of our expanded atrium.
People came prepared, having iPads and iPhones in hand with screens displaying their carefully worded prayers. Some wrote Bible verses. Some sat for a while and prayed.
It was a fantastic evening.
I lead each tour with an old-school megaphone. On the tour everyone sees GCC's Early Learning Center Natural Playground, the new restaurant, new resource center and expanded atrium.
The tours last an hour. It's easy for families to participate in these memorable moments of consecration.
Chris Whitmire, pictured here writing on the floor last night, is the Director of our Early Learning Center. She's amazing.
You can register for one of the four remaining tours here.
There are only four tour opportunities remaining: this Sunday at 5:00 & 6:30, Wednesday at 6:30 and Thursday at 6:30. You must register to attend (otherwise, we might run out of Urban Swirl..and that could get ugly).
Children blessed with the opportunity to write their prayers on the floor will remember what they did for the rest of their days. If you have kids: register all of them, help them think about what they'll write on the floor and bring them with you!
We're Raising the BAR as we Activate the Campus at GCC. Our Summer Surge is making a fall launch of our New Normal projects possible, and we're doing it all with cash! No new debt. No loans. We're paying as we go. If you'd like to join the Summer Surge, go here.
As we share Holy Communion in worship this weekend, I pray you'll lend your prayers to the consecration tours by registering for one of the four remaining opportunities.
