This image is the only thing that I have to show for the amazing time I had last night: The view.

As I was walking in the presence of seven other women that I didn’t know–though a Las Vegas hotel that I was not familiar with, I wondered what on earth I was doing.  We found our way to the right tower, rode up the the fifty-sixth floor and entered the most amazing penthouse suite I have ever seen.  I still wondered what on earth I was doing.

Three hours later I knew.  I had been in the presence of sixty amazing sisters in Christ who were all passionate about the same thing.  And it was apparently that God had given me the courage to go so outside of my comfort zone that my husband probably was wondering what happened with the real Bethany when I told him about it.

I walked into a room of sixty women, and I didn’t know ONE of them before my trip to Las Vegas.  But I walked out of there with a community of women who I believe will be in my life now for the long haul.  Photographers.  Believers.  Dreamers.  A Family.

Pursuit 31.  A woman of virtue is a crown to her husband.  Proverbs 12:4.

Oh yeah. . . and I wore a dress.  Bet you can’t picture that one.

Rachelle, thank you so much for leading me to the group.  From the bottom of my heart.
