We've Converged!

Greetings to all!

What a wonderful, life-giving weekend we experienced! It's so nice to connect with you all, putting names and faces (or blog addresses and faces, or email addresses and faces) together. :)

Soon we'll be sending out the exit survey. If you could fill that out, we'd greatly appreciate it: it will help us discern how the gathering went as well as what to consider for the future.

We want to continue to use this space to gather; connect; converse; converge. Marta Sears has graciously offered to help me administer the blog. She would like to allow folks to join the "team" and be able to write their own posts rather than only being able to comment. We're slowly working on the details. If you are interested in being able to post, leave a message in the comments: I can pull your contact information off of the registration contact material (which will be sent out to you soon as well).

Blessings to you all in your days!

Ps. The contact form on the NW Emerging Women Leaders website still works: feel free to use it if it would be helpful.

Amazing Converging Women!

Are you coming to Convergence? In some "preconference spirit", let's get this ball rolling by sharing a little bit about ourselves. Leave a comment with whatever you'd like to let folks know about you!

I know we're all looking forward to gathering this weekend. Blessings to you all!

Need a roommate?

Would you like to have a roommate while staying at Edgefield but don't know anyone else who is attending? Feel free to leave your requests in the comments.

Need a ride?

Do you need a ride or can you offer a ride to folks who are heading to Troutdale for our gathering? Leave your contact info in the comments.

We're gearing up for Convergence!

January's here, and the facilitators of Convergence are getting excited about our January 26th-28th gathering at Edgefield Manor in Troutdale, OR. This blog is a place to post requests for rides or roommates: simply leave requests and contact information in the comments.
