Updated Website

Good afternoon folks,

Thought I'd make you aware of the updated website for Maranatha Baptist Church in Poplar Grove, IL. Just click on the link below my name.

BTW, ignore the old grey-bearded man to the right on the page. He keeps hanging around the church and we can't seem to get rid of him.

Looks really nice; clean design, easy access to key areas - sermon, worship times, map, etc.

One suggestion:

"Maranatha is an independent church and chose to affiliate"

might read better as

"Maranatha is an independent church and has chosen to affiliate"

or some other wording suggesting that the choice was not merely historical, but ongoing.

I like the web site.

The link to sermons (e.g. Philippians 1:6) is very convenient.

Ivan,

Some hacker got into your site and substituted a picture of one of my elderly senior citizens in your place. Maybe you should call the web people and report the malicious mischief?

Oh . . . what you say . . . hmmm . . . well . . . oh my . . . Ivan I'm soooooo sorry. No I had no idea. Yeah, pretty stupid of me. Sorry, brother.

Very nice-looking website. However, you might have a Second Commandment issue with that picture of Jesus with the two disciples walking along the road.

Guess I'll have to alert the Decalogue Squad to make a visit to the premises...

Very good suggestion. I've seen that and haven't gotten to it yet to correct it. Thanks.

Haven't seen that yet. I'll check it out. If we keep it am I banned from the Puritan Board?

That's alright...just as long as you have a room in one of your homes for me, but don't be surprised if I go preachin' on the residents. I might be a tad annoying.

Ivan,
The image Richard is referring to is in the top box of rotating banners with the verse from Eph. 2:8-9. Other than that, very nice, not cluttered, layout makes sense, etc.
