Twitter hashtag: #IgniteLA

NOTE: We have NO AFFILIATION with the LA-based Christian group called Ignite-LA, nor any websites (that apparently use flash) associated with them. Look for updates here or on twitter or Facebook or blogs.

Please let us know if you are unable to attend so that others can get in. Please arrive on-time to guarantee entry as we have already reached capacity.

If you do not have a ticket: perhaps those in the community will tell us day-of or give you theirs if they cannot attend! Update: some cancellations coming in! Hang tight people... and check @ignite2LA later
