I will be wearing a white shirt.
Thanks, that narrows it down.
Yeah sure. Lloyd Kaufman was the only one NOT wearing a white shirt.

T1, glad you enjoyed it. BVM is Southeast Conference, MCUSA. The event is held there because they have the largest seating capacity, but it's sponsored by 5 local churches. The singers range from moderate conservative through MCUSA. That's one of the things I like about Lloyd, he is able to bridge some significant cultural and theological divides and bring people together through music that otherwise might not think they have much in common.

In the morning, I visited one of the CMC churches I hadn't been to before. If I were a permanent resident or snowbird, I might prefer the BMA church for regular attendance.

thank you.
i just did some reading on BMA, found their website, signed up to receive their online newsletter.
http://www.biblicalmennonite.com/

there are several publications on their site, some are available to download at no cost.

i guess i'll add their publications page to the forum's Written Word category, if that's ok?
i've shared the WW category with some non-members who are interested in more reading.

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

The event will not be at BVM this time, nor will it be at what was formerly known as BVM. Rather than two near-capacity programs, there will be one program at a larger venue, Covenant Life Presbyterian Church. Y'all are welcome to mark your calendars and join us.

Just bumping this thread in case anyone is planning to be in the area at the appointed time.
