Just a week ago, the first One Day Conference of 2010 was held in San Jose, California.  It was a huge success as many Californians joined us for this kick-off event. The Seven Key Seminar was presented as well as The Advanced Leadership Tract. The weather even cooperated! 

In the afternoon, Cheryl Baker gave a personal greeting to The Advanced Leadership gathering. She received a warm welcome from the crowd. In addition, she asked the group in attendance how many years their ministry had been running? One? Almost every hand went up. Wow! Two, still most of the hands were raised. Three, Four, Five. Over half of the ministries represented had been in existence for five years. Some ministries had been running much longer. To see those hands raised was more than a little inspiring. Folks, the ministry of Celebrate is growing and maturing. Many lives are being changed as faithful leaders continue to reach out to those with hurts, habits and hang-ups year after year! 

These same leaders spent a Saturday with seasoned Leaders to learn more about leading a CR ministry. They were networking with other ministries and gleaning bits of information from those who have been at the forefront of this ministry for years. These were experienced leaders still desiring to learn more! How exciting to see their enthusiasm and zeal for helping others!
