Next Promise Keepers Volunteer Leadership Mtg June 14'th

Hello everyone,

Before I forget...

Our next leadership team meeting will be at the Lee Company in Cool Springs on Thursday night, June 14'th at 6:30 PM. Larry Whittlesey will be in town as we make final preparations for the conference.

We only have two (2) more meetings after this next one before the conference is here: Thursday June 28'th and Tuesday, July 17'th, both at Lee Company. Our Volunteer Commissioning Service will be at The People's Church on Thursday evening, July 19'th at 7 PM.

Some of you aren't reading your e-mails as I've put this info on the end of the last five I've sent. Unfortunately, some showed up Thursday night only to discover that we were not meeting May 31'st. So FYI.....I promised not to bombard you with e-mail, but the ones I send are important and need to be read so you don't miss out on any important information. As always, the blog is your go to source for the latest volunteer information.

I wanted to take the opportunity to tell you how much I appreciate the job you're doing in preparation for Promise Keepers Nashville 2007. We had an awesome time of praise and worship for PK PowerUP and a very informative and inspirational Ambassador Training on Saturday.

For those of you who missed, PK speaker James Ryle (Coach Mac's team chaplain and pastor) was on fire as he addressed the attendees Friday night. We had a rare opportunity Saturday as we were addressed via video by Dave Morrow ("Why Men Hate Going to Church") and in person by Steve Sonderman, pastor of Elmbrook Church in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and one of the foremost authorities on building and sustaining vibrant men's ministry in the entire country. His was the first book I bought after PK Break Down the Walls in 1996 as I had answered God's call to lead the men's ministry at Forest Hills United Methodist. It was truly a privilege to get to meet him.

The latest registration numbers for Nashville and Cincinnati percentage wise are neck & neck at #1 and #2! I think we’ll both sell out, but it would be awesome if we did it first. Look for radio spots to begin airing in the next few weeks on WLAC, The Rock, 104.5 The Zone, WayFM, and The Fish.

Judge Ash is working on finalizing a community service project as both a team building exercise and a way to promote visability (i.e. TV/Newspaper) for the conference which will most likely be the last weekend in June. There will be more info to follow as it becomes available.

We're well on our way to having our teams, though some are struggling more than others to make progress (I won't call you out, but please redouble your efforts.) Our goal has always been to be fully recruited by Larry's last visit (June 14'th), but I feel the June 28'th meeting is both more realistic and attainable. Please do not make the mistake of waiting to contact those on your prospect list as their schedules are filling up rapidly as well. You may find yourself a day late and a dollar short.

As always, I am here to serve you. Let me know if there's anything you need and we will do our best to provide it.

You are the best team anyone could ask for and it is a privilege to serve with each and every one of you.

Grace & peace,

Tim Richards
