On a Wednesday afternoon, Anne Marie took a microphone to the front of a dormitory meeting at Colorado State University (above).  She introduced speakers to Cru staff members during our staff conference, Cru19.
 
This was part of Cru’s Bloggers-Authors Meetup, a series of events she’s helped with over the last few years. These events help Cru staff members be more successful writers. Our staff conference gave us a chance to be together as Cru staff writers.
 
The conference filled a bit more than a week of our month-long trip to five states in July and August. We visited friends, ministry partners and family members in Nebraska and neighboring states. It’s good to be back in Orlando again.

 
Thank you for praying for our trip. We’re grateful that you are part of our team of ministry partners.
