Well, Jason, and I went up to the Atlanta Conference with Justin Rosenburg. What a drive and poor Shezel and I were freezing and I booked us into a horrible little hotel..but hey we didn't know it was also SEC Championship weekend in Atlanta.
The Georga World Center is HUGE( try walking on 4 inch heels here!!!) and the message was fantastic. We were all so motivated and our CLUSTER (ORLANDO) was named as one of the 19 that was on the radar to be moved into an A cluster. Now, as you know , Jason and I ( and the kids) are relatively New Bahai's, meaning... we just do as the UNIVERSAL HOUSE OF JUSTICE TELLS US, and we really also don't know what a lot of it means.. but we just do it.
So anyway, We met with the ORLANDO cluster adn then decided that the very next weekend we would have teaching cmapaign in Kissimmee in the receptive neighborhood around HIGHLANDS which is where we already have children's classes. So, over 20 BAHAI's descended upon KISSIMMEE and took to the streets. We have met a lot of wonderful people and thorugh this we also lost all fear. We are AUDACIOUS in our BOLD ASSERTION OF THE FAITH and of our offering services to the community. We added doing a study circle along with the Children's classes.. they will take place in another room . Also, we added holding DEVOTIONS and also want to start a JUNIOR YOUTH at the MIDDLE SCHOOL up the street from our house. Jason and I are both teachers so it is just something that we are good with and comoforatble with.. so now we just have to do book 5!
So anyway.. we met a lot of receptive people and we will be following up with them. :)
WE ARE SOLDIERS IN GOD's ARMY!

There is nothing better than seeing the childen sign RED GRAMMER songs, say prayers, and ask for help and advice. Its awesome!
