That meant they usually got there on time, or not quite so late! Eventually we had a little joke about it, as I started calling it 'Christian Time' (which is 15 mins later than Greenwich Mean Time!) so if they asked me what time they wanted I'd be like '6 p.m. - which is 5.45 Christian time'!) Because I know what it is like to be the leader stressing out in how to fit everything in for the practice and sound checks etc, I usually text or call if I think I'm going to be late - 'treat others how you'd like to be treated'. It's more difficult to do if it's cos you're in a traffic jam though - cos it's illegal to be using a mobile phone while driving in the UK (unless you're using voice activated hands free or similar) When I was leading in the CU at university, I used to give a time that was 15 mins earlier to when I actually wanted them there for to the people who used to be regularly late.

I think we trying to get our footing again because our Senior Pastor stepped down from being the main worship pastor. I am trying to get my team to do the same.

That, my friend, is awesome. We are loving planning center. Expensive but so worth it.
