Yesterday we gave every volunteer @ Courageous Church the day off…without telling anyone else. No set up. No breakfast. No music. No parking crew. No Courageous Kids. No signage. No sound system. Nothing! It was a mess…just like we wanted it :-)
Our goal was to show everyone what a Sunday without volunteers looks like! It pretty much sucks.
We got this idea from our friends @ Elevation Church and it really worked! We had a ton of people commit to being a part of our Sunday team and we can’t wait to see how next Sunday goes!

genius.
This was a great idea because most people don't know how much work goes on behind the scenes before service begins. It's a lot of work that depends on lots of people.
Great Idea. BYOC this Sunday
Great idea!
My favorite part of this video: "Everyone knows Kumbaya!" *breakout of whistles* :-)
Even the kids' programs? Good for you! I don't think Elevation Church did that.
How did it go over? How was the message communicated? Did people get it? It'd be great to hear in a few months if people still get it.
I would like to know more about your church
