Congratulations on your start!  We're working in a parallel direction in Southern California (Pacifica Synod, particularly Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Claremont, CA.)  Steve DeSalvio, our webmaster, has hotlinked a prominent corner of our website to the BOF logo, which in turn brings up two automated slideshows:  one for the Initiative itself, and another one introducing our "join the conversation" Bible survey "course" offering featuring "At The Movies"/Ebert & Roper-style give & take presentations.  See both slideshows, as well as the ELCA BOF "talking points" summary and press releases by clicking "learn more" at our GSLC webpage at http://egoodshepherd.org/.  (I'm the designated Pacifica Synod Advocate, so I'll be pleased to share more information--either contact info for Steve or our new BOF "course", or what I will pick up in Chicago when the Advocates gather together--or afterwards . . .)  May God richly bless these efforts!        Jake Bach
