Okay.. this might get lengthy... I apologize in advance.
I've been trying to contact my host for tomorrow nights show for at least 2 weeks with no response to phone messages or emails. I was starting to think she wasn't going to hold. I left messages the last 2 days following advice I had read here like "I'll be arriving at 6, I'll be demoing this" etc. I finally called the host she booked from who told me that she knew that she WAS holding the show and had heard her inviting guests. That made me feel better and this morning I FINALLY got to speak with her. Satan was really trying to get my hackles up and feeding me messages like... 4 - 5 guests... good grief... Well, I prayed and fired back that some of my highest shows have been with low guest attendance but I decided that if satan was working here... there must be more to this show than Pampered Chef... kwim? So I prayed and prayed and gave this show to God like I have all my shows in the past... guess I was trying to own this one... and He led me to call the past host and ask more questions. She has been witnessing to this gal for over a year and has been asking God for others to confirm her witness. SO... PLEASE PRAY that God will use this show, my story of PC which includes His leading in my life and His blessings to do what HE wants... It may or may not be a big "show" for PC ... that's up to God... but I sincerely pray that the Holy Spirit can use this for God's glory... I may never see the results, but I'll join this past host in planting seeds for God. PLEASE PLEASE cover me and this host with your prayers if you can take the time.

it was SO funny! I was actually born in Grand Rapids. My husband and I both have quite a bit of family in MI. My dad is a retired CRC pastor so I "got around"! My husbands parents are immigrants... I'm a long term American... my inlaws are citizens now too but I love to joke with my husband.
When I first moved here, I was managing a Family Bookstore....and everyone kept coming in and mentioning the CRC....I remember turning to one of my employees and asking "What's a Ceearecee?" He just rolled on the floor laughing! I thought it was one word, not C.R.C!!! My DH's family is all CRC.....so I'm much better educated now!
