3 campuses, 12 services, packed parking lots, incredible musical performances, standing room only at times and thousands of people in community celebrating the reason for the season,
a Savior is Born
For the more tech savvy among us the service experience was translated into activity via social media.
Social Media?
Now I know what some of you are thinking — Social media?
You mean that Spacebook , Myface, Twitter, Twitterers, or Tweets or whatever you call it.
Well fear not, for you are armed with the Compass. Its here to help you navigate this social media thing by curating some of the best tweets, photos, and updates that took place during our Christmas services.
If you haven’t yet, think about subscribing to the Compass weekly. Its a weekly email newsletter that will bring all of the awesome that is Mariners Church to your email inbox. You can subscribe via the signup box that’s up and to your right on this page.
Its so encouraging to know that we are a church that passionately shares the message of Jesus Christ and does so socially, so lets take a look.
