Oh Yeah...I was in New Orleans to Work.














French Quarter

Yes, the reason to be in New Orleans Nov. 9-10, was to attend the Communities First Association meeting...so I have included one picture of our CFA group. The others are selected scenes from around New Orleans.

CFA is a national organization seeking to increase the number of communities transforming into places and people of blessing. Think shalom...that's a good picture of what CFA and Imagine NW! are all about = everything for everyone is simply wonderful and just and right and joyous! Transformation.

So during the 2-days we learned a lot from each other and guest trainers. Coaching was the biggee this time. This was a very insightful session that began to provide our membership with skills that help us in our work as consultants, advocates, yes, coaches.

My favorite picture [attached here] is my favorite found place and people in N.O. It was Gregory & Pete's Restaurant located at 515 Baronne St. Nothing fancy, but real good people, real good food...loved the grits! It felt like home, where I was accepted instantly, great conversation with the crew and other patrons. It was rich community ALREADY present. Keep it up. Still miss you guys.














This guy was GOOD! Somebody book him.
