---- VIDEO 1) 05/08/13 -----



When Old Stone Church's senior pastor, the Rev. Dr. R. Mark Giuliano, invited us to shoot a Cool Cleveland video inside their incredible Sanctuary, he lamented that previous attempts to capture the energy inside that magnificent edifice had failed.

So he invited us up on the pulpit to create our video on Sunday morning in the middle of his sermon in front of a full congregation. No kidding.

Tying in with his message to “Click Send” and go into the world, Giuliano is embracing social media with both arms.

Listen and watch from this unique perspective in the pulpit as we talk about the ways that Old Stone Church serves the Cleveland community through the Old Stone Choir and concerts, their art gallery, their Hope for the City speaker series, and with their collaborations with dozens of groups such as Bike Cleveland, the Downtown Cleveland Alliance, the City of Cleveland, and the Downtown Cleveland Residents Association, for which Giuliano serves as president.
