Last night's Memorial was the 24th (possibly the 25th) Memorial I've attended in my life. Each year it seems to get better and better and the experiences get more and more interesting. One of the notable experiences from last night, at least in our congregation, was that Nic's study, Roxanne brought 7 members of her family to the Memorial. It was so wonderful! The whole day was full of excitement...and I believe Roxanne said it the best, "I can't stop smiling!"
Personally, this was in spite of my own study not being able to attend due to a severe case of Bronchitis. Nevertheless, it was so lovely to see all the new faces!
While I don't know what the attendance was for our congregation yet (unfortunately there were many of our regulars and Bethelites who were attending Memorials in other parts of the country- with family or for speaking assignments).
If you know your attendance, let's hear it! If you have an experience to shout, sock it to me brotha! :)
