No discussion here please, just add you name. The idea is to have a place where we can check who we can expect to be there, and make plans to meet!

Linda and I will be there. We will sponsor a NazNet Booth. Delegates from our district have not yet been elected.Originally Posted by G R 'Scott' Cundiff
Tracie will attend as a spectator. I will attend as a commentator. Last time was Hannah Grace's first GA. She'll be back, along with little sister Sophia.

Planning on being there. Hope to man a "Concerned About Those Who Are Concerned About Concerned Nazarenes" booth. (Just kidding!)

A. Lucas Finch, handing out Concerned Nazarene DVDs.
Actually, I am the alternate NYI ministerial delegate from the Rocky Mountain District. So if my good friend and colleague who beat me by one vote two weeks ago at our convention is unable to make it (and he told me that there is a good chance of that happening), I'll be going out.

Looks like Stacey has been nominated, so we'll see if she's elected.
Either way, I plan to be there for part of it, at least.

Sorry, Wes, although I hope to be counted among your friends, I likely won't be visiting your booth. I just don't like fighting crowds.

I have been nominated as a clergy delegate from our district, but that is as far as it will go. It's reasonable that the folks who attend and vote at District Assembly vote for who they know for such positions, and I've only been on the district for a decade - and we have highly qualified clergy who are better known.
Besides, if I was elected, I would be one of those "White, male, USA, clergy" delegates whom I'm always criticizing for not giving up any of their power. Couldn't have that now, could we.

We will attend. My wife, Peggy, was elected a GA delegate today from the Oklahoma District, the merger of the Northwest & Southeast Oklahoma Districts last year.

Well, I was nominated to be an NYI delegate, but since we'll be leaving the district before Assembly, that's not going to happen. I'd still like to be there, but it will be as a spectator, if it happens.
...just my $.02.

With ministry transition occurring this coming summer, I won't be on any ballot as a possible delegate. I have thoroughly enjoyed serving as a District NYI President, and serving in that capacity allowed me to attend GA '09 in Orlando. I will be attending GA '13 as either a spectator or volunteer. While I have not served on the Indianapolis District during a GA, I've heard that it is very taxing on the district people and resources.
I'm looking forward to hopefully meeting many of the fine NazNet folks.
My wife was elected as one of our lay delegates today, so it looks like we'll be there for the whole deal.

Cool! Maybe I'll finally get to meet another Hoosier NazNetter. Indianapolis seems like a good midpoint for us.

Husband elected as delegate to represent the South Central Ohio district (name also changed during District Assembly) at both the NMI and GA. Since he will drive, I'll be tagging along.
Alisa
So what's your husband's new name? I didn't know they handled that sort of thing at District Ass'y. I've kind of been looking for a new name ...
Oh, I guess I read that wrong. It's the district that has a new name. My bad.
So does this mean we'll be seeing you around NazNet more frequently in preparation for the big gathering?
Signed,

Probably but my primary reason was to post the prayer request.
Ah, I had missed that. Thank you for sending me looking for it. I find it impossible to keep up with everything going on around here.

We just finished the South Texas District Assembly.
I was nominated for GA Delegate. I was elected as a GA Alternate.
Sam and I will attend, but someone will have to get sick and die before I get moved up from Alternate postition to Delegate... ha!

My husband was also nominated as a GA delegate, but he had to decline due to a work situation interfering with the time line. Too bad, I was hoping we'd get to go......
Oh, Dana, just come anyway. It will be good for you. Your poor dehydrated Arizona soul needs a good dose of Indianapolis summer humidity -- "air you can wear"!

"No scripture can mean that God is not love, or that his mercy is not over all his works" (John Wesley - Free Grace, 26)
At our recent District Assembly, Jim Franklin, was elected to be a delegate to the NMI Convention, but it was not me. There is another man on our district who goes by that name who is a retired elder serving as Associate at Bethel Church of the Nazarene in Nampa. He was a high school senior at Moscow, ID when I was in my Masters program at the University of Idaho there. So there I was at 31 already "Jim Franklin, the Elder." Since later he went into the pastoral ministry and was ordained as an Elder, that makes this old, old geezer older than the Elder. Look him up when you get there and greet him on my behalf.

I edited the post for you Hans
My husband & I would like to come but I am not positive yet if we can or not.
We have been to 3 General Assemblies & really enjoyed them.
Do hope we can come even if it is for a long weekend.
We would be observers if we get to come.

NED Assembly is over.
We were planning on going anyway, but now we have an official reason: my wife Meghan is a lay delegate to the Assembly.
In addition, Naznetter Ed DiSante is a delegate to the General NMI Convention.

How does she feel about that? I'm sure she'll do a wonderful job, she just never seemed like the kind of person who would really enjoy such meetings.

I'm planing to be there and hang out I hope that ok.
