Deb,
You go girl. I don't usually blog; but for you and UMVIM, I'll try anything.
Best
I'm here, too. Thanks for setting this up! Vicki
Well, as a college student I would say I'm definitely glad to be able to contribute!
This is a great idea,
All is well in Virginia...will arrive in Atlanta the beginning of August...though we have our boxes there and Kip is living simply until I arrive...completed my work in Williamsburg on Friday. Now for some downtime for two weeks with family here before moving.
I really enjoyed meeting all of you this summer...thanks for the warm welcome!
Deb,
I'm excited about working with everyone on Connect '08. Thanks for the invite!

It has taken me a bit to figure out how to get signed on but I think that this is a great vehicle for planning. I will be calling my youth ministry contact person about the prospect of guiding the Youth aspect. will let you know what i find out.
Deb...thanks for setting up this blog; like Paulette, I usually don't blog, but blogging could save us some time and keep the ideas flowing.
One suggestion for a speaker -- Rev. Larry Jent, from Virginia Conference. He's half Cherokee (I think) and half Irish, which makes him a very funny, and extremely effective, speaker. His message is usually Native American inspired, punctuated with some of his own Native American music (he has three CD's out). His wife is very sick and he may not want to come, but he's good.
Deb,
Thanks for seeting this up! I think this is such a wonderful idea and a great idea to discuss Connect!

Deb,
I thought I had responded earlier. Sorry. Great way for us to communicate.
Do we have ideas for a theme for next year's Connect?
See you in October.
Daphne
