Women of Faith Weekend

Hi Friends!

I writing with fun news and to ask for prayer cover -- I'm pleased to share that I will be at Women of Faith this Fri/Sat, and will be serving as a volunteer again in exchange for admission. For a second year, my role is as one of the "Hosts", which means I will escort two of the talents throughout the conference and have reserved seating right by the stage. Marilyn Meberg and Sandi Patty are the talents I'm assigned to! I'm so excited, and can't wait to see what the Lord does!!

Pray that the speakers speak truth into the women's lives and that the attendees are blessed. I want Him to knock their socks off!! LOL!! I also need my family lifted up, that everything goes smoothly for Teressa and Tara as they care for T, that Mike won't be adversely affected by me being gone (Trevor will be able to wrap his legs), and that my friend Diane has safe travel from southern Salem to serve with me. I also pray that I handle the Host role well, cutting the book line, keeping the star-struck in check, etc. Check out the description Women of Faith sent me - these are big shoes to fill:

"The Speakers and Talent appreciate your ability to be available, yet not intrusive; friendly, but not over-bearing or star-struck; knowledgeable, yet calm and patient. You are invaluable in helping the Speakers during transition times such as entering or exiting the main floor in the bowl; during autographing times; and getting to/from the hotel and arena."

Here's a little preview of what's going on in Portland, Oregon this weekend!!

I didn't know they had volunteer positions in exchange for entrance. Sweet. That's right up my alley since my spiritual gift is server. Let us know how the conference went.
Did you get my email about the flirty apron swap? I haven't heard from my partner, don't have an apron yet. Do you know what might be going on? Kathy
