The Movie Club

This is my good friend J.  (and yes we're unintentionally wearing the same shirt) (I yes I really needed a hair cut in this picture)

J is another youth pastor here in town.  He and I partner in ministry in so many different ways.  Beyond that, we're just good buds.

J shared with me that he and his wife would like to partner with us by doing the "movie thing".  He was referring to my post about Small Things and Big Things where I said that if a bundle of people would give 10 dollars a month for 5 months, that would add up to a lot.  J and I just went to see the Avengers together so it kind of seemed relevant to both of our lives.

But then he said, "can you remind me every month?"  At first I laughed him off but the more I thought about it the more I realized he was serious and perhaps others needed that kind of reminder.

So here's what I'm proposing.

The Movie Club.  Pretty simple really.

-You commit to donate 10 dollars a month  (one movie with popcorn a month).  You can contact us via e-mail or Facebook and we will remind you at the beginning of every month.  We're not going to harp on you if we don't get your payment, we'll only remind you once.  When 5 months is over, we'll stop reminding you.  (if you can't do 10 dollars how about 5 dollars....that's like a movie rental and candy)

You can make payment in person with cash or check.  You can send payment to us at our house.  You can use paypal via the DONATE button in the right column.  You can do it anonymously through YWAM for a tax deductible gift....which also now has a button the right.

BONUS CHALLENGE:  What if every adult in your house took THE MOVIE CLUB challenge?

BONUS BONUS CHALLENGE:  Let's be realistic here, it's not like you're not going to go see the summer blockbusters on account of us.  When you do go however, as you're handing your money under that little piece of glass, take a moment and pray for our journey through this adoption.  Maybe even share with those you're watching the movie with what God's doing in our lives too.
