Church Requel Luau Potluck Photo Album

Church Requel closed out its six-week sermon series on LOST with a Hawaiian Luau Potluck last night.  Potlucks are a favorite event at Church Requel. It seems like people love coming in an hour early and sharing a meal together.  Using the same Hawaiian themed decorations we already had in place, we set up half of our space with round tables and the other half for the worship service.  We played Hawaiian music and enjoyed great fellowship and conversations.  Fortunately, Stacie came with her camera and took pictures.  Click here to go to the online photo album to see the pictures.  (Thanks Stacie!)

Icicle Jail

Yeah, I start to feel closed in at home by February... but this is ridiculous!

New Church Requel Photo Album: LOST Wasted

Stacie Shoemaker did another great job of taking pictures at our Church Requel service tonight.  Most of the pictures are of our setup again.  Each week we get better at the setup.  But we're adding a lot of things with the LOST set.  As a result, we barely got everything done in time to open.

The camaraderie was really wonderful tonight.  I enjoyed watching everyone work joyfully in taking down the set and then saying their goodbyes.  We have learned to love one another deeply.  You can see from the picture above that we also have a great deal of fun together.

Photo Album: Church Requel at Mosaic

Last evening Church Requel met at Mosaic.  Our meeting place was unavailable so we needed a place to conduct our Sunday evening service.  Mosaic was most gracious to allow us to use their church last night.  I was so proud of our setup team.  They showed up early and worked tirelessly and enthusiastically.  Predictably our crowd last night was lower than normal because of the weekend's winter storm and because of the Super Bowl.  But I am glad we held our service.  We learned a lot about ourselves last night... and all of it good!  I know I'm blessed to be surrounded by such a wonderful group of people.  And I sense they all feel the same way.  Stacie Shoemaker came with her camera again last night.  (Thanks Stacie!)  Click here to go to the photo album (26 photos) from last night's Church Requel at Mosaic service.
