Winter Retreat Recap

// January 19th, 2010 // Events

The best way to explain how this weekend went is with a big WOW! We not only brought everyone home safely but we brought everyone home with memories that will last them a lifetime. God was very present this weekend as we went through our sessions and we saw many of our kids stepping out in their faith like they never have before. One of the things that fueled this was the great conversations that were had by all. We had leaders having good conversations with the youth and with each other but the youth were the ones that stood out. All of the leaders were very impressed with the depth of the conversations youth were having with each other and the willingness they had to help each other through the struggles they were going through. As a result of this we saw our entire group grow extremely close and many new friendships were created. As we left we told all of them that not to think of it as the end of a great weekend but the beginning of a changed life. Our goal now is to continue to help them grow and to encourage them to use the tools that they learned this weekend. We also ask for continued prayers for our group as they try to learn how to use those tools in their everyday life.

I feel the best way to end this is to say……….God is good……….All the time!!!
