Yearly Meeting

Tomorrow starts Yearly Meeting, the Evangelical Friends Church-Eastern Region's annual conference of services and meetings mostly for pastors but also for some church leaders.  I absolutely love it!!  I get to see and hang out with other pk's and see old friends.  It's definitely one of the most refreshing times of the summer.  I love to see my parents getting 'recharged' by being able to hang out with old friends.  My denomination is so close-knit; it's awesome!! It's held at Malone College and before I even began to think about life beyond high school, I knew my way around that college with my eyes closed....and thought I was pretty hot stuff.  :)  For about 7-8 years ( I lost track) I was a counselor for the preschoolers program.  All of us counselors for both the preschoolers and the older kids got to stay in the dorms and pretty much do as we pleased....and did we ever.  We pulled so many pranks on each other and had awesome waterballoon fights til the wee hours of the morning.  Ahh....those were the days when I didn't have to work.  Now just a nice weekend visit will have to suffice, but it's still so much fun!  We Quakers DO know how to have a good time! :)
