The AGC

Philpott church, the church at which I am employed, belongs to an association of churches called the AGC. I believe it stands for "Associated Gospel Churches."

On Wednesday I had the good pleasure to visit the AGC head office to demonstrate ServiceBuilder. They hooked my laptop up to their video projector, and I walked them through the various processes of my software. I felt a little nervous, first of all, because I didn't want to be taking unreasonable advantage of the relationship my church had with them to market something for personal profit. The other reason I was nervous was because I really believe in ServiceBuilder's core benefits, and I wanted to give it a fair demonstration.

They were quite enthusiastic. They made a couple of good suggestions too, so that it could be even more beneficial to churches and other organizations, (like the AGC). One of these suggestions has already been deployed.

They offered to write a cover letter to show to the churches which belong to the AGC, heartily recommending ServiceBuilder as a way of planning services, staying organized, scheduling people and making the most of a volunteer force, as well as contacting various groups within the congregation. They observed that it could be used even for children's ministry to plan kid's programs!

I'm so excited! Apparently they will give it some face-time on their web site, and offer it to their pastor's within the "pastor's pack," which goes out monthly.

I couldn't have asked for more. I hope it continues to flourish, and that more churches will benefit, and grow as a result.
