Julie, Jay, and Matt came to pick me up, and we left for the Convention Center right at 9:15. We got to the Convention Center, picked up our credentials (we have cool nametags to give us backstage access and make us feel official), and chatted with a few people before entering the arena. It is now 10 am, and we are waiting for the rest of the team to come into the arena. We will be shown around the backstage area (bathrooms and dressing rooms!), wired up, and then “Dress Rehearsal” will begin. They are currently running the “Four Areas of Focus” introduction; a male staff member is introducing himself as “Bishop Sharon Brown Christopher,” very unconvincingly. But he’s subbing in wonderfully. The General Secretaries are now doing their talk.
Yay! The rest of the team has arrived. Here’s Jason. Say hi, Jason. Hi folks! (That really was typed by Jason…) I also have to say that the team definitely made a Starbucks stop…and didn’t even bring the rest of us something! Oh, well. The unfairness of life.
Anyways, we’re going to go take a tour now…check in with you later!
