productivity

another Thursday night gathering!

we had a plan to be productive...highly productive, you might say :)

we are working on 2 things at the moment...

1) Zine. 

If you’re not sure what a Zine is – don’t be intimidated. We didn’t either. But now we’re experts. Basically it’s a homemade mini-magazine. About whatever you want it to be about. and then people sell them for like a dollar each. team? We thought so. so we’re working on one – and we want to have that along with some artwork done for STR’s CD Release Party on May 20th! So make sure you come check out the bands and our zine/art! :) it’ll be a really cool night.

2) Revolution creativeness…

sidenote (if your not sure what revolution creativeness means...) – we realized that as we create things, we don’t know what to call them…so we make up names. Haha (for instance – what do you call a dance that is mostly a human video, but is also choreographed…? Well now it’s a dance that tells a story. :) it’ll prb be shortened again to something like story dance…we’ll let you know. I know its important…so we'll be sure to meet up about it soon.) ANYWAYS…I say all that because we are now working on a Story Dance for Revolution.

We worked on the zine for a little bit yesterday and it was a smaller group for whatever reason – so we ended up talking about Revolution…and sarah and I have been working on this for a little while now and we have not had a ton of success with coming up with details or a really good idea.

So we just brought it up and all of a sudden ideas were forming and the whole team was working together and brainstorming and w/in the hour and a half – we totally figured out some REALLY exciting things! its going to be so great.

God just totally took over and gave His ideas to us in His timing. Awesome.

And THAT is one of the reasons I love this ministry, this team. God keeps doing that – He keeps opening up doors and then no matter what we do – He shows up and does His thing in HIS time. We try to plan and prepare, but its always Him. And its such an encouragement to see and be reminded of! I love it.

Its such a blessing that we have a God who likes to make sure we’re getting the most out of our gifts if we let Him.

Its just so easy to forget that and lean on our own abilities! I pray that we all can be constantly reminded to trust Him to take over :)

So we did have a very productive night :)

So great!

Now we just need to stay productive and on top of it all! Its coming up soon!!!!!

But be sure to add STR CD Release Party (may 20th) and Revolution (June 3rd) to your calendars!!!!!!!

Don’t miss them! :)
