500 Transportation! VERY IMPORTANT!!!

So after a lot of discussion and prayer we at the five hundred have decided that it is not in the best interest to try and get a massive amount of buses there to transport everyone. The logistics of paying for and mobilizing 10 major buses is way beyond anything we will have time or money for. The cost of paying for buses is way over our zero dollar budget that we planned on and really it is not necessary.

So here is what we are planning on. We are assuming that most of the people coming to the Deeper Conference will have some sort of transportation. So what is the plan?

#1. Car Pools. If you drove and or rented a car to/for The Deeper Conference, we are asking you to use that car to go to Atlanta afterwards. Were also asking that you are willing to give away any available seats so people who honestly do not have a ride will be able to ride a long. We understand that many people do not know their way around Atlanta, but in the next week or two you will be receiving a map of your assigned location for that night. It will tell you step by step instructions on how to get from First Baptist Church of Woodstock to stated destination.

#2. Church Vans. If you happen to be driving to Atlanta and do not live that far away, we would like you to investigate the possibility of using your church van instead of the family car. This will free us up with a lot of space will allow us more freedom. We understand that there are not many people who can drive the church van due to insurance, but if there are just a few this would help tremendously.

Any other ideas you can think of that would help us with this massive transportation of Christians to the city center are greatly appreciated. We understand that it was advertised and promoted with the possible use of buses, however it's just not a reasonable option. We do however believe that because of the numerous locations and size of groups that finding transportation will not be a serious issue.

Over the next week or two be checking your in boxes for 500 updates and information. We will be sending you VERY IMPORTANT info about the event, including where you will be preaching, how to get there and other important information.

Thanks so much for all of your support, I look forward sharing the Gospel with all of you.
