Thursday, 10/19/23 Went to Iron Mountain, packed stuff we coul pack ahead, went to Cruisers, back to hotel to relax, back to Iron Mountain ,

Bill sent me the pictures I had him take when we set up our stuff to sell. They just give you a tiny spot.  Ours was between the yellow cookbooks and the flowered sewed items

RFS Sale tables

We got to Iron Mountain at 8:15 in the morning.  We visited with Jeff and Kathy.  We all decided we would eat meatloaf for lunch on the mountain and then meet at Cruiser’s at 4:30 for dinner.  It’s a drive in we always go to that has the Outdoor speakers you use to order.  At 9, the service started.  Peter Helgerson was the Evangelist that gave the message.  It was very good.  When it was done, we went to goodies and Bill got a Colors Sweatshirt and had them hot press CMA Colors on the back of it.  It only took an hour so we looked at the silent auction stuff that was out and also walked through the RFS sale area too.  I bought some small angels to pass out to people.  We ate the yummy lunch they prepared for us, then went outside and walked up the hill to walk through the vendor area.  We bought a huge lemonade with strawberries.  It was highly recommended to us.  It was super delicious!  It’s a good thing we split one.  We went to register for camping next year after that.  We found out they take care of State leaders first and because we are state coordinators, there will be no charge for camping on the mountain and we can come anytime in October and have the spot all the time we want during the month of Oct.  Their spots have full hookups too.  

We went back inside and had a meeting with Our National Evangelist, us and Paul and Debbie. They are going to take our place as area reps.  It was so good meeting together, talking, and praying.  

We went to Holly Ogden’s class on the new CMA website portal and how to use it.  It was interesting and we learned some new things.

We went back to our hotel and packed what we could in the truck.  We are leaving for Kansas at 8 a.m.  After we finished we went to Cruisers and ate with Kathy, Jeff, Mel and Betty. Sue came and talked to us when we were almost done eating.  She and Doug had came and parked and didn’t see us outside at the table, so just sat in their car and ate.  We felt bad that we didn’t see them pull in.

We came back to our hotel and rested. Bill read his Bible and I took a short nap.  I always get up an hour before him, and I read my Bible then, so I needed that nap.  

We went back to the mountain for awesome worship with Jerry and Darrell.  John Ogden Jr. preached and gave an anointed message.  We loaded the RFS stuff in the truck and left after the service.
