It has been another wonderful weekend. I was overwhelmed this past weekend with God’s goodness. He does more than we can even think or imagine. Isaiah 55:9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
Greenville was no exception to being an awesome conference. A number of families had attended previous conferences, but there were many new faces. The young people were an especially engaging group, and it was such a joy to be able to share with them. The moms and dads were also very interested in the sessions.
The conference wrapped up with our best panel discussion so far! There were many questions, but Dad did a great job categorizing them to help us get through every one. We have thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to formulate a quick answer and articulate it to the audience.
Our ultimate desire is for the Lord Jesus to bring lasting fruit in lives. This is what we pray for. We are grateful for each person who attends a conference.
Again, we express our thanks to the Greenville coordinator and his family for all their work.
We have some posts to catch up on, so watch for a post from Anna.
Love,
Sarah
This little girl was showing me how old she was. In case you’re wondering, she’s trying to show two fingers.
Raising Courtship-Minded Children has been a popular session.
The panel discussion.
“Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.”
James 5:7Â
In all your free time, (ha ha) you should compile the questions that are asked at each location to see if there are common themes, great one-offs, Bible-specific ones, the hard or unpopular ones, etc. And then you can write a new corner! The question-of-the-day corner! Those of us who are at home would love to be proverbial flies on the wall when you’re doing this new, popular part of your conference offerings.

Meg, a very interesting thought to consider.
I was going to make a comment just now and saw that Meg had already said exactly what I was going to say! Maybe you could add a section on the website for these questions? Thank you for considering…
That looks like so much fun! Hope you all are having safe and happy travels!
I like Meg’s idea, too. With enough questions, you could even fill up an entire book.
I completely agree with Meg and Jill S. about the panel questions but am very aware of your already packed schedules! I am so pleased to hear about the success of the conferences so far and the wonderful work the Lord is doing in so many people’s lives. The Isaiah 55:9 quote is appreciated and timely in my own life. Thank you again for all the updates and for your continued ministry. I really wish I could have been at one of your weekends.
Take care,
Cate N.
Any chance of the Raising Courtship Minded Children session becoming a CD we could buy?
So glad your conferences are going well!

We will try and record it in the remaining conferences and see.
