Well hello again!.....
I have finally returned with a couple of "Firsts" for you!
Bout time! I know!
I will be brief, because I am typing this post from my iPhone!
Yup! That's a first for me! Lol
If you know me, you know I'm not the most well organized person.
Okay, I fail miserably in the organization department.
But, for those that know me, also know that when I do take on a task
I take that baby on and do my best to get it done and done right!
Which brings to my first "First"
I organized and saw through to the grueling end, my first big concert!
A big spanish christian band came to our church last Wednesday.
I didn't realize how popular they actually were. But the almost 800 people
who attended that night proved otherwise!
The is the first event like this I have ever taken on to plan and coordinate.
It was tiring, frustrating, & involved ALOT of details!
And did I mention I did it in LESS than 4 weeks!
Although it turned out to be quite a task, from contracts,to making hotel reservations to
Posters & advertising to organizing lists and lists of technical & production issues, to organizing teams of security and parking and sales tables and ushers to transportation and....
Oh my! Sorry I said I'd keep this brief!!
Well I have to say that the night of the concert went amazingly well!!
Everyone working together and everything running like clockwork!
And to see almost 800 people having a great time and being blessed by,what turned out to be not only a talented band but a great group of people who allow themselves to be used by the Lord in a great way! Well it made every bit of the hard work more than worth it!!
I have to admit that I enjoyed the challenge. I may have grunted and pounded my fist a few times, but I enjoyed it ;-) & I think, secretly, look forward to doing it again! :-O
And P.S. There is no way that any of it would have worked or come together without the greatest people who stepped to VOLUNTEER! Thats the people from Primera Asamblea De Dios Lufkin Texas!! God Bless them richly!!
Of course it went without a hitch - you're AWESOME!
