Have posted a couple more tidbits.
Check out pictures of us, as well as Chilean currency and drinks.
The Away Team continues to work on their talks. We meet once more this week for a practice together, although each of us is practising at home in front of family, friends, dogs and/or stuffed animals ...and my snails.
Dennis has nailed the talk on 'Why Did Jesus Die?' Looking forward to hearing his talk on the Holy Spirit.
Interesting how the talks have sorted themselves out and are being given by just the right person.
Carole is presenting some of the adminstrative talks - 'What is Alpha?' & 'How to Run the Alpha Course'.
Ramona is giving the 'Essential Elements' & 'Presenting the Teaching' talks.
Carrie is giving the training of the leaders talks - 'Hosting Small Groups' & 'How to Pray for Others'.
And Dennis is modeling 2 demo talks from the course.
Well, time to go...and practice. Maybe to the fish in the pond this time.

Wow. 26 days. Less than a month.
The entire team is meeting tonight. It is the last time before the trip that we can all come together to discuss last minute business and have a extended time of prayer. We anticipate an evening filled with high energy and excitement!
The Away team continues to meet once or twice a week to practice and fine tune the talks. Dave is handling our power point slides. What a blessing. He's even tweeking them in Spanish as needed. Gracias senor!
Lord, be a strong presence in our gathering tonight!

Had a fantasic steak night at the Callie Club, last night! Over 100 people came out, ate a good meal and enjoyed each other's company.
We set out a small silent auction, and set Cheryl and Kim up to sell 50/50 tickets.
Carole was determined to take the tea set home.... And she did.
Ask her when you can come for tea.
There was also grand wrestling for the pen to bid on Pat's cookies. Paul beat Lori out, but not without a valiant effort from Lori. Ask Paul when you can come over for cookies.
...Hey. Maybe Carole and Paul should put their heads together for a tea party.
The winner of the 50/50 (a friend of Sharon's) took $285.00 home in her pocket!
An excellent night all around.
Thanks to all who supported us!

33 days.
The Away Team met again tonight to practise and critique a couple of the GAT talks.
We will meet again tomorrow night to practice a few skits.
We are getting excited as we catch the larger vision of sharing the Alpha Course with folks in Chile.
Steak Night fundraiser is in 2 days!
Still need some funds to cover hotel costs, meals and incidentals.
God is good.
