Progress this week has been slow but steady. A continual effort towards progressively developing the business and logistical side of the ministry is critical at this point. Setting a firm foundation in the ministry is very important. Currently the first two drafts of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws are not quite what I'm after. I'm thinking of doing a business study which outlines the ministry's vision, then utilizing that as a guideline to try and put into legal terminology for the articles and bylaws. I've taken a week off to let the first two drafts age appropriately while working on some other material for the project.

I've made a few minor changes to the site, adding a humor section and linking some cartoons there. The majority of the work I've managed to accomplish on the project this last week focused on funding concepts, expanding the vision of the project a bit more graphically, and submitting the site to various search engines and such for a broader exposure. I am really wanting to get some involvement from others in the form of feedback, suggestions, etc. for the site. It is becoming increasingly important for me to get web hosting at a service provider that will allow me to use a bit more technology than what a free site is allowing me to use. I'm praying now that this possibility may present itself here in the near future.

The report this week is fairly short as most of what I've been doing is tedious and can be described in a nutshell. I would like to specifically mention though that the process of self-education, research, and planning has become increasingly extensive. The scope of the project is rather large and starting from scratch has generated pounds of material concerning everything from legal research, business research, and research on the various viable technologies. If you check out the research page, you will see that it is really starting to grow.

Anyway, I'll have more to report next week. God bless and peace my friends.

Yours in Christ,
