Leader's Conference Nov 5th - Nov 11th

We again went to a Church Leaders Conference in Redding, California, November 5th-11th. We took

another couple with us who had never been before. 

We were able to connect with our young friend from Russia, Kamilla over breakfast.

Brandon Jordan is taking the picture. He and his wife Rose are the couple we brought with us. She was unable to come with us that morning due to a video call with a book publisher.

We took Rose and Brandon to the Sundial Bridge.

We connected with a couple we met last year.

Scott and Diane Ritchie from Michigan.

I also got the opportunity to meet a woman that I met through zoom three years ago. Her name is Ally. She is a Beliefs
Trainer with Igniting Hope Ministries who lives in Spain. She and her husband have a ministry to the pilgrims that travel the Camino de Santiago. The first time we met through zoom we instantly connected. I learned we have the same birthday and we both married our husbands in the same month and year! How interesting is that?! We met at the conference. Later in the week they came to the VRBO we were staying in to visit and really visit.

Ally's husband is on my left. His name is Stephan. (pronounced Stefen). We had a great time of learning more about each other and praying for each other.

On Saturday we took Rose and Brandon to one of the water falls we had visited. It is a smaller one but the bigger ones took longer to get to. 

This is Hedge Creek Falls. I've posted pictures of this fall before.

We hiked a trail to a look out point.

We had a great week together!

Have a good one!
