One Thing 08 Day 2

The second day of the conference was just as amazing as the first. Misty Edwards lead worship and was just totally amazing!The love of the Lord just flows right out of that woman!Mike Bickle brought forth a great word! I ran into my friend Austin. He sings on two different teams at IHOP! I am so proud of him! After lunch we ran into Matt and Alexia. Matt had to do some sound checks to we decided to get some Starbuck's with his dad Tom, his sister Laura and Alexia.

Matt's family is from Minnesota. His father is a pastor too. His wife Patty was not able to make it so we look foward to meeting her in the future - probably at the wedding :-) Matt also has two sister Sara and Laura. Laura is on staff at IHOP too and his sister Sara is married with two children.

We had a great time getting to know Tom and Laura. We found out that Matt's parents names is the same as my parents names Tom and Patty. Also, Tom's birthday is the same as Alexia's May 9th :-)

After having coffee we headed back to the convention center. One time of year the prayer room is moved to the convention center while the One Thing conference is going on. IHOP KC's prayer room has been 24/7 for over 9 years.

Jordan has joined Matt's team and is the backup keyboard player. Matt's team was scheduled in the prayer room next so we all headed there to listen to the set.

After the set I headed back to our OHOP booth. I really enjoyed meeting so many people. I had two camera's with me the whole week and took a ton of pictures. I did have an accident with one of my camera's and lost hundreds of pictures of the week which included many friends we met that are friends of ours on the OHOP myspace. Here are a few pictures that we had on my other camera.

This is Mr. and Mrs. Faulkner. They have an incredible family that are all part of IHOP KC. Their son Truman came to OHOP to play keys with their son in law Marcus Meier when he came to lead worship for our September Awaken The Bride. Also, their daughter Grace is an IHOP Worship leader too. Our very own Christina Kimer and part of her team were at One Thing too. It was great so spend time with everyone that week.

I was sitting in one of the conference sessions and received a text from my friend Rebekah Ingalls who works for One Thing. She is part of the Mobilization department. She said that they wanted to interview me in regards to how we are mobilizing down here in Orlando. I at first thought she wanted Carlos so I handed the phone to me but then a few minutes later he leaned over and said they wanted me. So, I headed over to the interview area .Rebekah is orginally from Lakeland, FL but has been living in Kansas City since starting her job at IHOP KC. www.ihop.orgThe interview went pretty good . I explained how we were using Myspace and Facebook to get the word out about OHOP and also how we do monthly Awaken The Bride Weekends which brings in people from all over Florida and south Georgia.

Rebekah is just a doll and she does an amazing job!
