I am going to the Joyce Meyer Women's Conference!
I just got surprising news tonight. My husband is sending me to the Joyce Meyer Women's Conference in St. Louis ! Its October 2-4 this year. I have been wanting to go but of course I didn't say anything, I don't have a way to get to St. Louis, and no one to go with, and its expensive to fly. I have been talking about it because I told my husband I am hoping that next year they will have it in the summer and not during the school year so maybe I could go. But he is surprising me and sending me there as my birthday present.
And I REALLY REALLY needing encouraging news tonight because I've had a really rough couple days, with the 6 month anniversary of losing you-know-how and all, then some rough stuff today too. Yay! I am so grateful that my husband surprised me with this news tonight. Joyce Meyer is an awesome speaker and I've learned a lot from reading her books and listening to her CD's and DVD's. This will be really cool.

Uh... no one. I don't have anyone to go with me. But that's okay because I'm used to going places alone. I'll just smile and be friendly and hopefully make some new friends. That would be nice. Joyce Meyer conferences are awesome.
I would not think your husband is being wise sending you alone somewhere far away from home like that. For one it's not safe and two, you are not mentally or physically stable enough to go. You need to concentrate on getting yourself well.
Um... thanks for your advice and care, Anonymous, but actually, this is going to be one of the best things for me, I travel on my own ALL the time, and I LOVE adventures. Going to this is going to help me SO much. Joyce Meyer conferences are SO healing. He is being very wise and SO helpful to send me. THanks for not judging.
Hi Pilgrim,
I just finished reading your blog last night. Hey, I have an idea---if you ever do want to resume treatment. Why not write to Dr. Phil about it? I'm a huge fan of his and he seems like the kind of person who'd want to help someone who's tried as hard as you---and someone who's helped as many other people as you. I would trust him.
And God above all :-)
Just a thought,

YAY for you!!!!!!! That is SOOOO exciting (even though I'm quite jealous since I'm pretty sure she'll never come anywhere close to where I live). I've listened to a couple of her messages online -- VERY encouraging, even life-changing. I'm praying for your physical health and safety, plans to work out perfectly, everything fall into place so that NOTHING gets in the way of going to that conference and being UPLIFTED!!!!!
Thats great. I really want to go, but have no one to go with. I am in Cleveland. I just went to the conference in Detroit Michigan by myself. It was really great. Would have been better to have a friend along though. Really want to go to women's conference.
Lucky you.....getting to go to the women's conference. My husband and I are going to the San Jose, Ca. conference in Sept. I watch her everyday and read her books too. She has saved me and our marriage. Have fun in St. Louis. Maybe I'll get to go next year.
I've seen her in person before. She is great. Who is going with you?
