Greater Philly Writer's Conference

This is our display at the Greater Philly Writer's Conference. Our displays take no time at all now to set up and take down. This one covered both the mission side and the publishing side of CLC.
Dave taught a clinic on non fiction book writing and I talked with people and took classes on "jumpstarting my publishing dreams", "making it flow", and "writing a political suspense novel". I gleaned a wealth of information on publishing.
Here's Dave at an author/book signing event next to Emily Chase who was an author for CPI when he worked there.

We met these girls two years ago at a missions conference at their church. They remembered us! They are homeschooled and avid readers. Their family runs a gift shop that sells home decorations with scriptures on them. Their mother was concerned when she saw beautifully decorated homes with no scripture evident.

New friends from the writer's conference at PBUThis is Woofi, the missionary puppy. He is really soft and cuddly and travels to many states and countries comforting little children who need a hug and to hear about the love of Jesus. For a donation when you buy one Because We Care Ministries will give one to a little child.

I really enjoyed talking to this sister in Christ from Maryland.

Jennifer is a pastor's wife and found some resourses to lead a women's Bible study. She was a blessing to chat with as well.
