The Vision Blitz

Starting in January of 2008, the Overflow Student Ministries will be making a push to emphasize the idea and vision behind OSM, as well as the WATER concept that keeps it on track. The project will be - for a lack of better words - a media blitz that will involve the students, leaders and parents creating awareness of OSM's ministry to students in the church and the community.

The project has actually started, with the students' coming up with a new logo. The logo contest started last week Sunday and will run until Sunday, November 11, after which the students will vote on the logo they feel should represent the student ministry. As a litlte bit of added incentive, the prize for the new logo will be a gift book from Consolidated Theatres.

We will use this logo on publicity materials and promotional items that will help to keep the Overflow and WATER concepts in front of us, reminding us of why we do what we do in the OSM. Some of these items may include a visitor gift package, t-shirts, WATER bottles, pens, event flyers, mailouts, posters and banners.

One of the ideas that's being tossed around is having the Vision Blitz launched at Cornerstone the very first Sunday of the year, with the students handing out WATER bottles that have the OSM logo and WATER acronym printed on them. And, that would only be the beginning. There's talk of an Extreme Makeover... you know, Youth Room Edition...
