A few years ago that was removed as a violation of the copyright law. There are still violations like no cover charge but having it at a Church is not one of them.

I am curious how you get around the copyright law. We have had to more our party to a home because having it at the church supposedly is an infringement on the NFL copyright of the game. Your thoughts!

Yeah – this is the video of the programatic part of it. When these guys came up they did a few games and give aways. After they left we did 2 testimonies. Check it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNHQP-4Aa-4

Do you have any video from your Super Bowl Outreach? I would love to see what it looks like! I’ve never thought of doing an outreach using the Super Bowl but it makes a lot of sense.

Here is what we are doing/have done:

Souper Bowl Collection and Party February 7th

Join the movement that is transforming Super Bowl weekend into the nation’s largest youth-led weekend of giving and serving! The Souper Bowl of Caring equips and mobilizes congregations, schools and businesses to positively impact their communities by collecting money or food on or near Super Bowl weekend. For more information, visit http://www.souperbowl.org/. 100% of the collections are donated directly to the charity of each group’s choice. Last year $3,391,455 was raised and we were a part of that!

This February the 7th, Super Bowl Sunday, our youth will be collecting canned goods and toiletry items for Western Fairfax Christian Ministry, http://www.wfcmva.org/, and FACETS, http://www.facetscares.org/. They will also hold soup pots for donations after both services to raise money for disaster relief in Haiti through the Anglican Relief and Development Fund (http://anglicanaid.net/). Traditionally, this has been an extremely successful time for our church in raising funds for those in need and we know that this year will be no exception with all of your involvement and participation.

We will celebrate our collection again this year by watching the Super Bowl at the Peake’s home at 13426 Hidden Meadow Court, Herndon, VA 20171, near the church! Call the Peake’s if you get lost. We will have maps and more information in the gathering place and on Facebook. Our party will start right before kick-off at around 5:45ish and will end at game time, or when your parents insist you be picked up, because it is a school night. Don’t forget to bring your canned goods, a favorite dessert or snack, donation for dinner, and a souper bowl donation. We look forward to seeing you on Super Bowl Sunday, at the collection, and at the party!
