I was able to go to TIMEOUT for WOMEN this past weekend. With a great hook-up from my friend Patricia... I was able to volunteer and work there as well! Because of that... I got to 'chat and hang out' with.... (drum roll please...)
- JOHN BYTHEWAY
- BRAD WILCOX
- ARDETH KAPP
Our family LOVES John Bytheway.. we listen to all of his CD's! He was great to listen to and fun to meet!!
Bytheway... I touched his back!!! Crazy!! Aside from a small episode of STALKING the presenters a little.... I tried to follow them to their hotel... would have been successful too... but Patricia thought better of it!! It was so much fun to be a groupie!! Anyway- the entire weekend was INCREDIBLE and a much needed refill in my bucket! My favorite presenter was Kris Belcher... check out her blog at http://www.hardtimesandholyplaces.blogspot.com/ She is an absolute RIOT!! She had me laughing so hard... she has an amazing story and a remarkable ability to find humor in her very difficult challenges!! I loved the group MERCY RIVER! They have beautiful voices and great messages to their songs. I also met a lady named Jill Manning who is making great strides in the fight against pornography. She challenged all of us to take this pledge http://deseretbook.com/familypledge - Which, will help prevent and confront the issue of pornography in its many destroying forms, and hopefully prevent it from entering our homes and lives. We are all taking the pledge tonight for FHE!! Anyway... what a great way to spend a weekend!!
