Registration is closed. The hotel
booking is complete. The shirts
have been ordered. The programs
have been designed. The AV Tech

but finalized.
Hmmm …
why do I feel like a million things will still come up between now and August
30th?! Ha.
Clearly I
haven’t even had time to blog about my life lately. But for those who don’t know (and are still reading –
*wink), I am essentially THE Event Coordinator for a 400+ person event
in Ireland at the end of the month.
I’ve been working since March to put together the World Race’s 2nd Annual Awakening worship conference. It is the one time of the year that ALL current World Racers are in the same location at the SAME time – 5 squads and
almost 300 Racers!!! Crazy!
So – needless
to say – it’s been a lot of work.
But I am to the point finally that I’m honestly excited to see how it
all comes together. This is the
first large-scale event that I’ve coordinated since my glory days as Student
Body President in high school. Something
tells me this is a BIT different than preparing for the school dance and
blowing up 1,000s of balloons for the massive homecoming decorative tree. 🙂 But at the same time, I’m in my element. I love the details. I love the excitement and being able to
work with so many different people.
And I LOVE what it’s ultimately about.
for Racers to sit. And be
still. And pray and seek. And be poured into. And just be with one another. And play. And sing. And
dance. And love. And … so much more.
I
am still in need of $2,000 for this project. I am 100% support funded and would love to raise this BEFORE
I head to Ireland. It would be one
small detail I could check off my absurdly long list of “Things To Do” 🙂
If you’d
be interested in supporting me – you can click on the link to the left. And as always, prayers would be
appreciated:
- That the Awakening would be
meaningful for all participants – that our time together
would be powerful and impactful - That I would be able to ENJOY
my time with my WR family on top of all my responsibilities - That options would
materialize in my post-Awakening job search! 🙂 - And ultimately, that I would
remember that the Lord is my strength and provider – that all of
THIS is only
going to happen by his hand and grace! Ahhhh!
Thanks
and I’d love to hear from you!
Blessings. Michelle
