Destinations: Tournament of Roses Parade (and some fun facts!)

This Saturday we will be going to one of the largest parades in the world.

We’ll preach to those in the grandstands (as you see “Righteous Richard” doing to the left), preaching to those at the Porta-Potties (see below), handing out thousands of tracts (freely provided for you), and maybe even have a few one-to-one conversations. (Read about what you didn’t see on TV in 2009 here).

Oh! And don’t forget to watch this video of when thousands booed us last year.)

If you’d like to carpool with us and join in an evangelistic adventure you will never forget, (REVISED) meet at Hope Chapel at 5am. If you’d like to meet us in Pasadena, meet at the Metro Rail station at Sierra Madre Villa at approx. 6am at the ticket line. We will take the train to Allen Ave. and walk to the parade on Colorado Blvd.  Contact me at 310-374-4673 x. 121 and I’ll give you my cell.

Some fun facts about the parade:

  • 18 million flowers, 5,000 gallons on glue, 600 tons of steel, and 300 horses are used in the parade.
  • Which band has been in the parade the most times?

Sudden Death: Santa Slaying

This Christmas proved fatal for Santa and friends. It was Ho! Ho! Horrible!

Evil lurks among the lawn displays and roof ornaments. Behind those feint smiles of holiday cheer hide something darker, foreboding.

Welcome to  CSI: Christmas.

Who, or what, could do such a dastardly nasty on the lawns of suburbia, all decked in holiday cheer?

What on earth—or Hell—could bring about such mournful fear?

Look carefully at the clues from our crime photographer here.

A Christless Christmas

Two years of Christmas coverage on three networks produced a scant 1.3 percent of stories mentioning the deity. The true message of Christmas, the miraculous birth of Jesus Christ, has simply been ignored by the mainstream media. Read the rest from CMI.
