The Weekly Wrap-Up: August 1-5, 2016
I've talked about the OMS acronyms before, right? There are a million. It would be possible for the following sentence to be said:
"MFM, ECC, DWIM, and IMD are working together on a trip to CAJ, CAM, and CIS to discuss scholarships for SEMBEC, MECS, and MTC."
Granted, it wouldn't be very likely. But nearly everyone at OMS would know what you had meant.
That has absolutely nothing to do with my week. But it's fun.
Anyway, this was a T&M training week. My duties are largely limited to backup and data recording. I did get to take the group photo, though. It turned out quite nicely.
We did another release of the T&M app to update some new features. I've been testing it again to make sure everything is working properly. We're trying to decide which features actually need to be implemented. We have a list of about 275 things that need to be changed, added, or tweaked. It's way too much for one update, so we're trying to sort them by order of importance.
In addition to all that, we're working on changing the covers of many of the books. If we can streamline the process so we don't have to change all of the art in every book, we can get books out faster. It's hard to come up with illustrations that correctly reflect the content of each booklet.
This was the last week for our intern Morgan. He's been here several weeks learning about church planting. We get interns every so often, and their contributions vary. Morgan has been very helpful to us.
I hope to have a prayer letter out soon. I wrote most of the copy this week; now I just have to put it together.
Remember all that sleep I didn't get last week? This week wasn't much better. And this weekend won't be great for sleep, either.
Oy vey.
