I found my tribe!

Wow!  I stepped into 'deep water'.  You all have cultivated an amazing atmosphere where everyone shares easily and in sync with the theme.  And the content is substantive.  This 'deep water' is very unusual.  Thank you!

Great conference. We were so glad to be a part of what God is doing in this next age of His people… calling is up to a higher and greater reality of living.  So many wonderful things to inspire, chew on, activate and share.  So glad for your folder of notes. I'm looking forward to digesting them.

I just wanted to convey a huge and heartfelt thank you for all you poured into the ALC 3-day conference. There are so many aspects of it I could call out to specifically appreciate, but on the other hand I don’t want you to have to read a novel.  Instead I’ll try to exercise my best word smithing skills to express my gratitude in a more Reader’s Digest fashion.

 

To start with, there was such excellence I could tell was very intentional —

 

•            from the warm and inviting physical environment you created

•            to the delicious, beautiful food spreads that seemed to never end

•            to the perfect progression through topics, worship, activations and ministry

•            to those you chose to share their hearts and journeys who ‘brought it’ on every level

•            to the love and feeling of coming home I felt from the moment I walked in the door

 

…and this is my WAY edited down list!

 

There were a couple of times over the course of days when I looked across the room and saw all the people except they were morphed into intricate treasure boxes, each containing priceless jewels that God was taking such delight in lifting out from each box to be seen and appreciated and valued.  And that part was major holy ground in and of itself.  But then a sense came over me of how precious it was to God — who treasured those ‘jewels’ more than any person ever could because He was the One who had walked beside each person through the seasons or years of longing or pain or joy or whatever else it took to craft and forge those treasures — that you had created a space, let’s call it a The Louvre! of the Kingdom World, where all of those jewels from all the people who came/participated, could be displayed and God could celebrate them free from any danger of being trampled, damaged, or mishandled because of the thoughtful care and order you curated into the environment for it to happen. I knew that mattered and ministered to Him deeply and I want to honor you for that.

 

It was a rich time for sure. I’m so deeply appreciative to the Lord for re-connection after so many years and speak blessing over you both! Also, I know there were others who helped make things happen so please feel free to share the appreciation however appropriate.  I tried to catch those I knew of, to thank, but there were some (or lots) I don’t know yet who I’m sure I missed.  With gratitude,
