[Faith-talk] National convention

[Ericka]

Oh such wonderful news! I'm not going this year unfortunately. Hopefully this will become an annual event for you and I will get to see you another year.

>> Shika, Linda has really good advice. I will be praying as well. Remember, they let you go to your friends that one time. More prayers are sure to be answered! Hopefully this year of course but God works his own time. If my prayers get answered and your prayers get answered, we get to meet in person at national! I'm hoping to be going with the blade Inc. training center crowd. But first, VR has to do their part by saying yes and sending in the proper paperwork. If all goes well I can take a space June 1! You pray for me, I'll pray for you and we'll see what the Lord has in store.

Just come right out with it with your parents. Explain why you'd like to go, and stress the benefits to you. Bathe it in prayer, and I promise to pray with and for you.

I was wondering how to tell my parents that i want to attend national convention. I have flied in the past to convention but I don't know how expensive the flight will be. Have you guys had experience with having a free summer. I am probably going to volunteer and take one class. I live in Georgia. By car it is six hours. Is mega bus or train safe to get to Orlando?
