Hey Community Group, welcome to our new Blog! I am very excited that we got this off the ground. And before I go any further, lots of thanks to Steve Praz for putting this together because if it was left up to me, I would still be trying to send you guys dozens of emails all in the same night :) So thanks Steve for all the hard work you put into the website.
So why did we put together a Blog for our CG? Well for many different reasons (one of which I just think it is neat) but mainly for the reasons listed below....
- Better way of communication for the CG. Instead of me or Kathy sending out tons of emails (cluttering up your inboxes), we are going to start posting announcements and CG related things right on this website so that you can check out what is going on any time from any place
- Better way to keep track of CG events. With the Google calendar built right into the website it should be easy to check out what is going on and answer the revolving question (is CG this Tuesday?)
- Better way to build together as a community. I hope this blog will provide a great context for us to share our lives with each other. So whether it is a CG event or something going on at church or just stuff we all do in our lives, we can post pictures or videos right here for folks to see.
- Better way for new folks to get connected. As new folks start coming out, it will be easier for them to get connected with the CG through the Blog.
- Just have fun together...
All that to say, I pray that God can use this blog to accomplish those goals but ultimately I pray that as we experience fellowship together we may grow and deepen our love for the Savior and our passion to pursue Christ.
So check out the Blog regularly (i.e. a few times a week), send me pics /videos and let me know what you think of the Blog!
