What Went Down–30 January 2011
Today marks Day 1 of the R&D into the new “RRY Israel Experience” book. Click here to find out more.
Being slightly outnumbered by the ladies today, Alex and myself brought our laptops and together Claire, Kayla, Jess and Anne [with "e"?] (sorry, read comment below, Ann…)started by finding all the Scripture passages associated to the events we’re covering in the Experience. A lot of laughing, copy/pasting, shouting at slow internet and the like, all the many Scripture verses were neatly collated into an Excel spreadsheet. That makes “Part 1″ [Scripture] complete. (Click the link to find out about the different stages in completion for each event!)
Hit the RRY Israel Site for more info about the progress of the project…
NOTE: Next week (6 February 2011) there’s Communion, and Elder induction, so we’ll go into the church. See you all then!
Big Plans–2011!
Welcome to 2011 everyone…this year has been prepared in advance by the “Youth Steering Committee” and wow do they have a big idea for youth this year: making a book! (yes, with an ISBN and a proper barcode!) The details are still in the “lets kinda get this going” stage but here’s what we can tell you…
- The book will be about AN ISRAEL TOUR. So we’ll detail the main events happening in the Bible, the places where they occurred, interesting pictures, media and of course all the Bible verses relating to it, along with a timeline of when the respective events occurred.
- A new blog will be set up in conjunction with this one to detail the process in making the book, the content inside and anything relating to it.
- We’ll each, individually, and as a group, handle the various tasks we’ll need to get through to source stuff for the book, and even accommodation, logistics and the like will be planned out so if we actually were going the trip would flow. (not jumping around locations; that’s impractical)
- Software, like Google Maps, Earth, the Glo Bible, and RapidStudio will be the main tools for getting this thing done!
- A planning spreadsheet will tell us whether we’re on track, and we’ve also got “Sunday School Mentorship” along with some cool outings planned for 2011!
- With Christ as our guide, lets hope 2011 will become one of RRY’s best years!
