Just a quick update to let you all know something is happening here. Last night was the start of men’s conference. It was a great evening with around 4,000 men out worshiping God and bettering themselves. It started with half an hour of “fun” which included four men in a competition of some common “domestic” duties like ironing, taking care of a baby, and waxing (their choice of which part of their body). Then we all settled in for some great worship and moved on to an amazing message from Casey Treat about renewing our minds and the need for change in our lives in order for growth and improvement. The place was packed like I’ve never seen this building yet and there were many commitments to change. If my camera would take better pictures, I’d put a few more up here but here’s the best I got.
Saturday continued with more great stuff and then the keynote speakers, Casey Treat and Kevin Gerald, also spoke at the Sunday services. We also took up an offering that is going 100% to mission work in Rwanda and got just over $242,000 for that. The conference was truly great.
In case any of you are interested in coming to the Hillsong Conference next year in July, some of the people coming out for it were announced at men’s conference. Steven Curtis Chapman, Chris Tomlin, Israel Houghton, T.D. Jakes, and Lou Giglio to name the ones I remember. It will be great!

A nice shot of my friend Ryan before the evening began. Even Ryan though this was a good picture.
