Ok, so Day Two...Conference day.
Our conference was really good and we came away with some good ideas and some reassurances that we were on the right track. One interesting part of the conference was that we were the only two "white girls". At first we thought that we might be uncomfortable, but we immediately realized that it was no big deal at all. The reality is that we are all God's children, and there are so many more things that we have in common than not. It was a great experience to hear what other churches, church offices, etc. are doing and the things they are going through. We all had similar stories and similar problems, so it was nice to get different opinions.
That night we went back into New Bern and walked around some of the historic area, ate some more seafood, drove around looking at the huge historic homes and then went back to the hotel to go to bed early.
Day Three - We got up, ate breakfast, flew out of the tiny New Bern airport to Charlotte, ran across the whole airport just in time to get at the end of the line to board our next flight to Dallas, and then returned in time for the Super Bowl.
It was a great trip! We had a good time seeing the sights and learning more about church administration. And I hope you enjoyed my stories!
