It is now Saturday and the media has now had two days of what we referred to as a 'firestorm'. They spent 2 days blasting what we did with the name change and we were dropping Christ from the ministry to be politically correct. Of course they had no clue what they were talking about. On Friday, Steve Sellers was able to talk about the name change of FOX and was able to use the name of Jesus 16 times and explained that we have in no way changed what we do. We just needed a new name for the new culture.
We spent part of the afternoon in break out seminars and we took our first shift greeting people at the tent. We say over 30 couples and some singles take the tour. It was very busy for 3 hours and hot. I had a bug take bites out of my neck during that time. Had about 6 bites before our shift was over.
The day ended with our evening meeting and they sent us off to the first break (Sunday) for most of CCC staff. After meetings all week this was a welcome time for most.
The evening ended with Tim Hawkins doing his comedy for us. He had about 4000 in attendance and had us laughing until 10:30p. It was good to laugh after being pretty serious all week.
