A wonderful summary. I’m sorry you were feeling a bit lonely… had no idea. But I’m glad you found a little peace in the coffee shop.
What a pleasure it was to meet you!
-
I think the conference was worth a few growing pains. 🙂
And it was good to meet you, too. I’m really looking forward to reading your book.

Thank you for the conference update. I am praying and planning on attending for the first time next year.
Warmly, Joanne

Hey Joanne – Thanks for stopping by!
I think most of my conference learning will come in the next few weeks as I apply what I heard in the sessions I attended. 🙂

It was a bit overwhelming, wasn’t it? I’m so glad to be home and back in my mundane routine (isn’t that were God usually speaks to us anyway?) I enjoyed connecting with you and it seems we were always bumping into each other. May God bless you as you walk with him.

Glad you’re home and fully loaded with learnin’ and such. Your time there was covered in prayer.
-
Thanks for the prayers, Julie. I think the learnin’ will be leaking out of my pores for weeks.
And Michelle – I sure was glad to meet you, too. ‘Overwhelming’ is a perfect adjective. 🙂

May God’s richest blessings be yours as you reflect on the extent of His love demonstrated through the death His Son on the cross and the awesomeness of His power exhibited through the resurrection.
To God be the glory!

Michelle,
I wasn’t able to attend Mt Hermon this year but last year I was a first timer and there were times I escaped to the coffee shop myself! I can totally relate. It’s hard to put that many introverts in one place and make them play nice for a whole week!
(not all, but the majority of writers would categorize themselves as more comfortable alone than in a crowd of people)
Anyway, maybe we can meet up there some day!
-
Thanks Bill, for the words of blessing.
And Madison – you are right about the introvert thing. I am pretty outgoing, but I think I hit the social fatigue wall a few times throughout the 6 days I was there.
I’m glad I went – it was a good stretch, and I fell in love with those redwoods. I have been telling my husband we have to go back to the area to do a wine country circuit and sit in the forest.

Thanks for the recap on Mt. Hermon, Michelle! I attended a few years ago so I know how overwhelming it can be. I can certainly remember the highs and lows – they sometimes seemed to come at the same time. It was nice to revisit the experience through your eyes.

Thanks, Maureen!
