Ok, after being on here for about a month, signing and being new to PC, sharing my past PC knowledge, I have a request...

PLEASE pray for my first cooking show on Wednesday...

Specifically:
1. Sales - would love to have at least a $500 show so I can earn the washcloths (OK, a little selfishness there - actually I do want to qualify soon to help my recruiter officially be a F.D.)!
2. Bookings - need some to get started - all my initial ones keep turning into catalog shows or fizzling out. I need to start the momentum strong...
3. Nerves/composure - I do not normally get nervous in front of people at all, but that day I will go straight from FT job to a quick stop at the grocery store to host's house to set up. I'm afraid I'll miss something.
4. Fun yet glorifying to God! I want to have fun that night, enjoy the company get show how this "business" can be glorifying to God too...
5. Whatever else you want to add...

I know there is enough of you out there that understand those requests and I just feel compelled to ask for prayer - don't know why...but if I do, it's for a reason!

Thanks in advance!
