We’re so excited that Alex gets to lead the quickly growing Doral campus, and can’t wait to see what God does!

Check out this video of Pastor Troy Gramling introducing Alex and Erin today!

This weekend, the Flamingo Road Photography Team, a kinda-new subdivision of Potential Studios (:D) will be photographing Beach Baptism!

As a photographer who loves capturing emotional moments, Beach Baptism is one of my favorite events to cover. There is nothing like watching the life-change that our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ go through as they go into the water, and back out.

The joy that takes place is too hard to explain, so you know what? Just come join us!

If you haven’t taken that next step in your walk with Christ, this weekend is the perfect time to do it! There will be partying and BBQ down here, but that’s NOTHING compared to the partying that will be going on in heaven .

So- come see for yourself!

This weekend at Flamingo Road Church, things are going to be UNBELIEVABLE! We’re anticipating 10,000 people between all of our campuses, and its SO excited to see what God’s doing in our church family!

If you haven’t heard me talk about it yet, here’s your chance to check it out:

I am super stoked to be attending this 1-day leadership conference called The Nines . I hadn’t heard of it, but thanks to the AMAZING communication skills of our pastors, they made sure EVERYONE who wants to come and experience this would have the opportunity to. Its being hosted in the Cooper City Campus Auditorium. So, if you wanna come have a life-changing leadership experience (they ALWAYS are), come join us, 9.9.09 at 10am : ). Hope to see you there!

From their website:

The THEME:
Leadership Network asked some of the church’s greatest communicators: “If you had nine minutes to talk one-on-one with thousands of church leaders, what is the one thing that you would tell them? The result is a series of passionate and personal messages that will help you and your church navigate into the future.

The FORMAT:
The format is simple: Nine minute video leadership lessons that can help multiply your church’s impact. You will be stretched as a leader, and motivated as a church. And you’ll hear a personal word from many of the leaders you know and trust (along with some great new leaders we’ll introduce you to).

Potential Studios (part of Flamingo Road Church) is home to some of my absolute favorite people. This college dorm style hallway is filled with the most amazingly talented, ridiculously creative, awe-inspiring group that if you’re even remotely into movie production, motion graphics, graphic design, photography, etc…, you could only HOPE to be a part of. Or at least be near, to absorb some of their imaginativeness (is that a word?) through osmosis. Seriously, they ROCK, and I’m so glad to be a part of their activities and I can’t wait to see what the future holds!

Below is the 2008-2009 reel of some of the CRAZZZZY things they’ve produced… Check it out and see for yourself… Bet you never thought church and working for God could be THIS cool!!
