He would like me to speak on the Women of Influence talk that I have given at Great Lakes and Canadian Bible School, Building Your Spiritual House, and lastly, "Thank God for the Fleas" a short exhortation on gratitude to God no matter what our situation in life. All of these would have to be simplified for the trip since they would be too much material to deliver in a week unless I had at least thee classes a day, and I am not sure what their schedule is like.
