Go Metro (conference)

Christian, Faith, melissa mashburn, Team
Hey Everyone…sorry I have been out of it for a little while. It has been a very hectic couple of weeks (it’s a great hectic, but hectic nonetheless) and I am finally catching my breath a little to let you know what’s been going on.

We added a 5th service to our Cooper City Campus at Flamingo Road Church, celebrated the 1 year anniversary at our Doral Campus, moved into a cinema at our Lima, Peru campus, and launched our newest campus at the Sawgrass Mills Mall!!! All in one amazing weekend!

After the last service last weekend Charlotte, our Children’s Ministry Director, and I loaded up and drove (on Super Bowl Sunday) to St. Petersburg Beach, FL for the Preschool and Children’s METRO conference. It was being hosted by Idlewild Baptist Church (hey friends at Idlewild…great job!).
Unfortunately we had to leave the conference two days early, bummer for us, but we were able to get away for a day or so and get a chance to meet some other people who do ministry in larger churches. I can’t wait to have a chance to go through the bag of goodies that we received while we were there… 😉 BUT…my favorite thing is to go through the “packets“. Every church that was at the METRO brought a packet of information, print materials, samples, etc. from their church to “share ideas” with the other churches. I gotta tell you…I am like a kid in a candy store when it comes to those “packets“…

Can’t wait to share with you and my family at Flamingo Road Church some of the cool things that I learned there…Go METRO!
