Last Sunday as I sat between Wess and Emma at meeting, I had the sense we were a team, (along with the seven others of course). I had the feeling I was a part of something incredibal, that each member of the team is unique and needed and that we were in this together. It reminded me very much of the same sense I had last year at our meeting in North Carolina, of reaching out and instead of strangers, finding friends, brothers and sisters. Tomorrow they all arrive here in Oregon, I'm excited to not only show them this land I love, but just to see them and be with them. We will be in a house together for days - what I consider sweet bliss of heaven. Yes, we got a lot of work done last year, but we also had a lot of fun, laughed a great deal and had an awesome time. I'm looking forward to an even better meeting this year.
I'm holding you all in my thoughts as you travel. Don't get stuck in Chicago. See you at the beach!
With love,
Sarah
