We began the program with a prayer and asked God to
intervene. Knowing that He fed the multitude of people with 2 fish and 5 loaves
of bread, I felt comfortable knowing He would feed the people gathered
peacefully to fellowship, network and be informed. Upon observance of the
unusually large crowd I knew we were going to be okay. And He did not fail.
Although many more people attended than we anticipated,
not only did we have enough food to feed those we had counted for but we had a
considerable amount of leftovers; which we donated to a homeless shelter.
Thank all of you, because of you it was an evening well
spent.
