WHAT IS YOUR CHURCH DOING NEW YEAR'S EVE?

Many churches plan special New Year's Eve services, but with the state of the church in America today, it should come as no surprise that many are doing nothing more than offering a worldly party.

I am so sick of reading about the stupid cheesy events churches come up with. I wish they would either be the church or simply become a recreation center for the community! Here is what Mars Hill Church in Seattle has planned:

COME BUST A MOVE ON THE ENORMOUS DANCE FLOOR WHEN THE BALLARD CAMPUS TRANSFORMS INTO A POSH CLUB TO CELEBRATE THE NEW YEAR. A SMOKING BAND, TASTY DESSERTS, A CHAMPAGNE TOAST AT MIDNIGHT – MARS HILL HAS NEVER SEEN A PARTY LIKE THIS.


DATE & TIME:
Monday, December 31st 9:30pm – 12:30am.

LOCATION:
Mars Hill’s Auditorium
1401 NW Leary Way
Seattle WA 98107

DESCRIPTION:
Our second annual New Year’s extravaganza! Ring in 2008 in Red Hot Style. This New Year’s Eve party features internationally known artist, Bobby Medina & his Red Hot Band. This 12 piece big band does it all, from Swing, to Latin to Motown and beyond and are widely considering one of the top dance bands in the Northwest. We’ll be transforming our auditorium into a Red Hot Spot, bringing in an enormous dance floor, refreshments, dessert, champagne, photos in an awesome backdrop designed for the event and all the noise-making party favors you could want. At midnight, countdown with 1000 other revelers with fireworks live from Seattle’s Space Needle on the big screens. This is going to be an unforgettable party. Get ready to sizzle!

PARKING:
There is an abundance of street parking & a lot has been reserved at the corner of NW Ballard Way & 11th Ave NW.

ID’s:
Bring your ID’s if you wish to enjoy the champagne bar, which opens at 11:30pm for toasting.

ATTIRE:
This is a swanky event on a day to celebrate. Bonus points for anything RED in color! Remember, we have created an awesome backdrop for photography and professional photographers will be on hand to capture you and your friends on this unforgettable evening.

DANCE CONTEST
Register the night of at the dance contest – everyone is welcome! $200 first prize!

TICKETS:
This event sold out well in advance last year. Tickets are $35 in advance and if there ARE any left day of, they will be $50 at the door. Click here to purchase tickets.


I want to make sure people understand that this is the church of Mark Driscoll. He has become a popular preacher, even in some reformed circles. I will not call a man a pastor who uses his church for this kind of an event!

This is pathetic, sad, ungodly, and should be rejected by all!
