If you attend Wednesday services, there's a nifty survey on the Lakewood website accepting feedback on the services. Very short, very quick, and very painless. But be sure to give some genuine feedback rather than just say how much you love everything. As much as I like the legroom and prime seating available on Wednesdays, it's just as nice if it's a packed house.

On that somewhat evangelistic note, I happened upon a couple of highlighted events coming up next month:

Sept. 9 ... Star of Hope Transitional Living Center: A Day of Celebration with single-parent familes! Come and encourage families making a new start. Volunteer opportuinites include serviing food, playing sports, crafts, and games, music and ministry. Pick up a flyer at the Information Centers. To sign up, call 713-491-1254

Sept. 30 (8:30am - 12:30pm) ... How to Share Your Faith
