More from Priscilla

Well sisters! I wish you could be at my house right now. There's the most beautiful sound that I have ever heard filling the air. . . COMPLETE SILENCE! My hunk of a husband blessed me by taking the boys to Alabama for the weekend to spend time with some relatives so that I can have some peace and quiet to spend time with the Lord and prepare for all of you next weekend. I haven't heard this beautiful sound of "nothing-ness" in this house in as long as I can remember. I think I like it! (Hope I welcome them home with enthusiasm).

Now, don't get me wrong and don't even think for a minute that my three men aren't the most important thing in my life but it sure will be nice to park in the middle of the garage, sleep in the middle of the bed and not have to cook or clean if I don't want to. Can I get an "AMEN"!

I'm so glad that in just one week you will be coming from Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky and all over the US.
So thrilling to see old friends and meet new ones!

Jan, (how could I forget you) tell those 14 ladies coming with you to buckle their seat belts and get ready to hear the Lord speak into their lives!
Joyce, make sure those 8 coming with you have their Bible's and are are ready to dive in deep!
Mary, thanks for sending all that love my way. . . . .dahlin'!
Paulette, thanks for praying sister! I need it. I'm praying that your sweet friend feels the Spirit's tug of conviction on her heart and surrenders to Jesus!

Didn't mean to leave anyone out. . .Please know that I'm thinking of you and praying for you!

Can ya'll believe we get to hear Beth Moore and Kay Arthur! YIPPEE! Doesn't get any better than that.

Ok friends, I'm back to my SILENCE. Listening for God to speak. Can't wait to hear what He has to say!

Priscilla

PS. . did I mention that my brother Anthony is singing at DS? Best singer I ever heard!

Priscilla,
AMEN!! Ahhh silence. God is good!! I will pray for you this weekend. How sweet of your husband. I met you at Desperate for Jesus in 2006. IT was a great conference and everyone at your church was so sweet to us. You were/are a great hostess!! I saw Anthony in Gatlinburg at a music conference in July. He is an awesome singer!! We are excited to hear him sing. Have a fun time with Jesus. See you next week!!

Blessings,
Patty

I just downloaded some of Anthony's songs yesterday. I was surprised at how many I knew, but just did not realize that was him singing!! He is so talented. Looking forward to seeing you both next weekend.

This will be my FIRST women's conference. I will be traveling from Midway (coastal Georgia) and visiting Tennessee for the first time. How great our God is to allow me the privilege of spending time with such Godly women, two of which I have had the most awesome pleasure of their company by way of Bible studies. God has used the teachings of Beth and Priscilla to show me how to seek that intimate relationship with Him. I can hardly wait to experience God's Spirit as He moves in our hearts, dear sisters! I rejoice in the love, mercy and grace of the Almighty God.

Hi,
I have been coming to the beth moore conferences for I think 4 years now and I have always come away from them in aw of my savior and Lord Jesus Christ. He works when I don't even think I need Him to, at those times when things are good and you really don't think you need a touch thats when you get a chunk of LOVE droped on you from the Great Adonai. I hate that I will be missing this one but God is going to bless one of my sisters in Christ as she takes my seat there for the first time. I had back surgery and thought I could come anyway until without asking whether I could go or not, my doctor says you can travel around town but you can't make trips to places like Nashville. As one of my friends said, " God knows you Bridgett and He knew He would have to be specific". He could have said Birmingham, Memphis, etc. But No Nashville!
I know God has other plans and I can't wait to see how He works in my sisters life as she returns to share with me. I am more excited this time than I think I have been before, never did I believe giving my ticket would bless me so much. I praise you Father, PraiseYou. I pray all goes well for everyone and that through this conference that God will be Glorified . Love in Christ Jesus Bridgett Vines

Dear Priscilla,
My best friend and I heard you speak at Daybreak in Lexington, KY ('05) on our annual "best friend trip" and we actually got to meet you at Daybreak in Decatur, AL in '06. We are so absolutely excited about Deeper Still - traveling with 37 ladies from Hartselle, AL and Decatur, AL and can't wait to hear what the Lord gives you, Beth, and Kay to share with us. You enjoy that quiet time this weekend because next weekend, you will hear the beautiful sounds of chatter, laughter and beautiful praise coming from thousands of ladies from so many places. I'm so excited that my sister from Memphis will be joining our group in Nashville. We'll see you next Friday!!
Love ya,
Dianne
