HELP!
Dear Friends,
I still marvel at the favor that god has given us with all of you! Thanks again for checking in on us! There is so much going on…we are featured in this month’s AtHome Tennessee Magazine! Great article that they did on us! CMT Loaded has clips up of the ICM Awards show up and you can see a very rattled looking Greg McDougal presenting an award…and also the two categories that our project was nominated for… Inspirational Country Music Album of the Year Award and New Artist of the Year Award. You can also look up Star Country Angels Network Charity Online Auction. They are donating this years proceeds to our cause! Please take a look and even contact Estella Pan and let her know how much we appreciate what she’s doing! GAC even posted a blurb about it on their website yesterday! How Cool is that?! I went by GAC offices today to tell them Thank You for that and met a bunch of really great people! I did that while I was downtown to take a few corrections to the surveyor…Crawford Land Surveyors here in Nashville…great people!…hopefully that will be all of the new hoops that the city has us jump through to get the building permit!
I am finding a need for a higher level of organization…in the AtHome magazine article, they quoted me as saying that I am the CEO of 3 or 4 corporations…what I meant by that is…I FEEL like the CEO of 4 corporations with all that there is to do the to move house stuff forward, Home Repair business stuff each day to make a paycheck, and then of course all that there is for a Daddy and Husband to do each day at our house. And now that God has raised the Non profit aspect of all of this and now we are going out to churches to play, sing and tell our story…Are you tired just reading this? I am NOT a multi tasker! And so I am really challenged to fit it all in to a weeks time…
I am praying about and keeping my ears open for an internship program where a student could help us with address and e-mail entry and perhaps some of the marketing stuff. We need someone who is able to do some of the computer stuff that we are so unable to do. Just a thought…trying to take this to the next level! We want to be prepared as an organization. To be more effective in the work that we believe God has set us aside for. All of this while we are desperate to get the house started and finished for our kids!
There may be a pretty big event coming up in February. Might have a big concert here in Mt. Juliet to help us in our cause. I will let you know. I just posted a thing on My Space…google gregmcdougal is a challenge that I have sent out! Corny, I know! But have I mentioned how shameless that I am in my endeavor? If we have a lot of people google gregmcdougal, then it could help with our ratings. That would go a long way in making our case to corporate America when we are trying to get them to help with the Non-profit! Hopefully will also help send alot of traffic to the website to buy CDs! Be sure that you tell your friends and family to google gregmcdougal! Might have some bumper stickers made up!
Also need to get some T shirts made up! Any one interested in a T shirt?
God Bless!
