October is a busy month! Many of you "Light the Night" as you host an alternative to Halloween. October is Pastor Appreciation month.

The articles in this INSIGHT are thought-provoking. Amy Fenton Lee's article holds a wealth of helpful information about the best placement for a child with special needs. Do you feel exhausted? Ruth Howard comes to the rescue with helpful suggestions. You'll ponder how to facilitate worship experiences for children after reading Matt Barnes' perspective. I was inspired by Kim Vaught's interview with the Langston's.

You have registered for CPC…Right? When the INCM Executive Director describes the great CPC'10 programming, you might think, "That's her job…she has to say it's good." Actually, my assessment is from my perspective as a long time church staff member. The venue additions and refreshing changes for CPC'10 are over the top! Check out the detail on the www.incm.org website. You may want to use the Referral for Dollars offer to underwrite your own expenses. Get 20 new people to register with your name on the Referral line and $400 cash will be yours at the CPC Registration Check-in. Go for it!
