BishBash a smash!

As you know, BishBash 2007 was a success! Thank you to everyone who participated and helped! It was a great, sunny (despite the stormy weather forecast), and fun day.

Now's your chance to tell us what you think. What was your favorite joke in the icebreaker game? Do you think every church event should include spelling words with your behind? What was it like getting communion from the bishop? Share, share, share.

In the meantime, check out some photos and an article on the Wyoming Conference Web site:

Introducing the BishBash Logo

We are pleased to unveil the official logo for BishBash 2007. And yes, that is the word "one" in several different languages. It'll help us remember that while we may be unique individuals, we have an incredible opportunity to form ONE spirit, ONE body, ONE hope in Christ!

Thanks to Zaminy Hibbard for designing our logo pro bono!

One Uno Un Eine Een En Jeden Moja

As I said in an earlier post, the theme for BishBash 2007 is One, with Ephesians 4:4-6 (along with the ONE campaign and the song "One" by U2) as our inspiration. I gave you the verse from The Message, but I thought I'd share with you these verses from other versions of the Bible:


There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called— one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
(New International Version)

There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
(King James Version)

There is one body and one Spirit. There is one hope in which you were called. There is one Lord and one faith and one baptism. There is one God. He is the Father of us all. He is over us all. He is the One working through us all. He is the One living in us all.
(New Life Version)

There is one body. There is one Spirit. You were appointed to one hope when you were chosen. There is one Lord. There is one faith and one baptism. There is one God and Father of all. He is over everything. He is through everything. He is in everything.
(New International Reader's Version)

Enjoy!
And as always, leave comments and suggestions!
Four months to go!
