Hey all, this is Mike from 340.
First off, we don't want to offend anyone, and anything I'm going to say now, or anytime in the future is not meant to be offensive in any way. I'm not angry in anyway, I just want to discuss this in an "adult-like manner".

Having common interests is what brings people together no matter where you go. That's how people make, and keep friends. FIRST is an awesome organization that has been bringing people together since it started! I think I read a post once about the first marriage between two people that met through FIRST.
What Dylan and I are going for is to use FIRST as a way to communicate to other FIRSTers about the love that the Lord has for them (To be clear, I'm not saying this is our sole purpose for participating in FIRST). If we asked people to come to church with us, not a lot of people would. So we're using a more comfortable environment to talk about God with them. We feel that this is a much better, more effective way of doing this.
I hope this helps... please let us know if you have anymore questions or comments!
