but turn off the lights and the popcorn machine.
Bishop Katie:
Headed to Iowa for a little baseball and a couple days away from a-town.
7:07 AM Jun 22nd from Tweetie. Field of Dreams?
Pastor Ski emerged from total Twitter silence to post this alarming message:
On our way 2 Dyersville, IA - Field of Dreams. Nice detour on the way 2 Clinton, IA 4 the Midwest All-Star game. about 22 hours ago from TweetDeck.

Verified, via the Internet, a lot of trips for this hard-working team of Shrinkers, Ski and Katie:

The dot.com website builders had the same motto: "if you build it, they will come." Most of them went out of business during the dot.com collapse. The synod building mania is going down the same road. Oh, well, they have a lot of offerings to squander.

I am not sure that the trip to the Field of Dreams is to relax. It may be for more training. Most of today's building expansions and/or CG experiments adopt the "build for growth" model. This is adapted from the famous line in the movie Field of Dreams - "if you build it, they will come".

What a sham!
Are Ski and Katie married?
WELS Youth Rally is in Ames, IA...corrupting the youth?
With luck, they stopped by to transfer membership to the Basilica of St. Francis Xavier in Dyersville.
The WELS youth rally is July 8-11, 2009. How long does it take to drive to Iowa?
Another bored WELS pastor frittering away time. Heaven forbid they get out and knock on doors. That is for the laity.
Anon 1:05, that depends, where do you live?

Amen to that! Don't you know 'everyone's a minister' is probably something a lazy pastor came up with just to keep from having to do his own work. This way they can lay the guilt trip on the laity for not doing enough. All they have to do is copy, paste, and read a sermon and then they have six days off.
"Who Is Minding the Store? - At The CORE?"
The laity need to assume responsibility -- Ski and Katie simply took off for a break.
Responsibility? For what? Other than having one Sunday night service a week, what exactly is it that Ski and Katie are doing?
JR,
Even one service a week overtaxes and stresses out a WELS minister.
The glamor of a theater to play in has worn off.
Just what is Ski doing in the ministry? What value does he add?
They have a sign on the Core front door saying that this Sunday, people can worship at St. Paul's Lutheran Church just a block away.
Hopefully Ski went on a job interview since CORE is going nowhere.
Who but Satan would name his church the CORE? Like apple core.
