PICS
Pictured in the montage : (click to enlarge)
-Over 15,000 people attended one of our services at one of our campuses this weekend.
-We had a gospel choir at all of our campuses - some virtual - some live (I even got to sing in it once) Let me just say that you haven't done choir till you've done it gospel style ! Intense! Thanks HP for dragging half the staff on stage :)
-We had over 479 baptisms this weekend and hundreds showed up at the beach at 6:32 am for a celebration to remember ....amazing! (the pic is a screen shot from my mac - (low res) it was being broadcast live on our internet campus.
- Even our bathrooms rocked - we had soothing stress relieving "body works" cream everywhere with spa pebbles in every sink. Sick!
- Doral's green room was off the chain ... i might just move in there! ;)
- Two bunnies roamed around the entire weekend - i think one even got saved
- Everyone who came got a CD in their car introducing our new series "the BED" - check it at www.troyandsteph.com
- Finally - thousands asked God for a miracle this Easter and came forward! Troy hit a home run every time - simply powerful!



VIDEOS

Below are two of my favorite videos we produced for this weekend.

The first was our countdown video for the weekend - it displayed some our "lobby cams" and introduced our guests to our several campuses.




The second video was shown right before Troy came up and set the tone and context for his teaching on "miracles" - probably one of my favorites this year so far... (Fun Facts: 1. Troy actually used the same tombstone in the video live on stage at all our services -- 2. Contrary to popular belief ...we actually shot this video the day before it first aired ! Crazy! The team spent all day and night till it was just right! Mad props!




It was an unforgettable weekend ... but as i always like to say:

The Best is yet to come...
