"Not Yet" - but "Already"
I think all of us in ministry have had this experience: We work really hard to come up with new programs and ideas; we work on the details; we invite people; we post it on Facebook; we spread the flyers… And two days before the event we have to cancel, because of low registration numbers. It can be really frustrating.
