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.

Hello!
This year's MOPS theme verse is from Matthew 18:20 "Where two or three come together in my name, there I am with them." For the MOPS Convention our Zone, Zone 22, will have a table available for us in the First Link Cafe, which will be located in the Resource Area of the Convention Center. The Field Leaders in Zone 22, including me, are putting together a personalized Zone centerpiece and we could really use your help. If you have pictures of your MOPS group that can be emailed, please choose 1-5 and email them to me at pamopscm@aol.com no later than Wednesday, September 16th. Then you will have to be sure to stop at our First Link Cafe Zone 22 table on Friday, September 25 from 3:45 - 4:30 pm and see what we have created just for you. If you are not going to Convention this year, please send pictures and we will be sure to take pictures of our Zone 22 centerpiece and share them with the Zone right here on our blog!
Thank you,
Christy
