Did Anyone attend AMC 2009?

I was just wondering if anyone here attended AMC and if so how was it?

Re: Did Anyone attend AMC 2009?

I also am curious as to how the World Wide Pentecostal Wrestling Fellowship has affected the AMC conference. There is only so much money to spend and time to travel to conferences so I wonder if when faced with hard choices some cons and ultra cons have had to choose one over the other and if so how that affected attendance at AMC.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

That suprises me because I thought that the WPF was a little bit too moderate for a lot of AMC people.

WOW the WPF and moderate in the same sentence. And who would think you could use two acronyms in a single sentence that made you think of wrestling?

There was between 900(lowest night) and 1200(highest night). The WPF might have had some effect but really the rooms were higher this year and the economy surely had an impact. The WPF meeting being so close to AMC did not help. But as one poster said they are more moderate than the AMC crowd as a whole. However 3 of the founders were there including the Chairman.

Next time, they should just put it on Pay-Per-View and make a tidy profit!
