CONVENTION UPDATE
Ta da! A Convention announcement!
We just signed the papers and we thank you for your prayers as we worked on moving, well, a whole lotta details in just a few days.
Drum roll #1: The Gaylord Palms in Kissimmee, FL (Orlando area) was able to welcome us (in the midst of many conventions needing to move).
Drum roll #2: We're able to keep the registration fees the same, so some of you might decide to come early or stay late, and enjoy the Orlando amenities with your friends (or family).
And thanks for all the great ideas of cities! You helped our future dreaming. 'Twould be fun!
And again, it will be great because of Who we'll be with: "Where(ver) two or three (thousand) are gathered in my name, there am I with them." (Mt. 18:20, our year's theme verse with my additions).

Convention Details:
The MOPS International Convention will be at the Gaylord Palms, Kissimmee, FL (Orlando area). Dates will be the same, August 5-7, 2010. Speakers and artists will be the same great lineup — Julie Barnhill, Margaret Feinberg, Donald Miller, Naomi Cramer Overton, Shelly Radic, Go Fish, Mandisa, The Katinas and Richie McDonald.
Convention registration will re-open on Monday, May 17.
The early bird registration deadline will be extended to June 7.
We are working with the Gaylord Opryland for an official letter we can provide to anyone who has already purchased airline tickets to use with airlines to avoid rebooking fees. This letter should assist you in rebooking airline tickets — it will be posted online at www.MOPS.org/convention.
We continue to pray for families and businesses affected by the flooding and we have sent MOPS materials to local MOPS leaders who are distributing supplies in the Nashville area.

Well, the MOPS Convention is only days away....are you going? If yes, are you excited? The Field Leaders in Zone 22 want to know if you are going to the MOPS Convention. Please be sure to let your Council Coordinator (CC) or our Area Coordinator (AC), Nichole Bethel, know that you will be there.
MOPS International is doing something a little different this year. They will have an area called First Link Cafe in the Resource Hall at Convention. There will be tables and chairs and our Zone will have an area just for us!
We are all scheduled to meet at the
First Link Cafe on Friday from 3:45 - 4:30 pm. PLEASE put that on your schedule and be sure to stop by and see us! This time is for us to connect as a Zone and (I am pretty sure) we will have some goodies for anyone who comes!
I hope and pray that your first MOPS meeting goes well for you, your Steering Team, and your moms! Let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
Hope to see YOU in Nashville,
Christy
