A Brief History
Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, weary New Mexico convention organizers realized that they were abundantly blessed with strong and willing young people with overflowing energy and servants’ hearts.
While the parents were making the tough decisions and handling the delicate problems associated with every convention, these young servants could be moving chairs, unloading curricula, greeting attendees, and BEING blessings. They only needed a little organization, a lot of food, and wise overseers. Thus, the runner program was started!
