2008 Summer Retreat Photos (THEY ARE FINALLY HERE! - with a video!)
This summer retreat rocked! We had 65 students join us for some real fun in the Pocono Mountains. We had a crazy time on the zip lines, giant swings, rock climbing wall, water wars, noodle attack, night swims and improv games. Good times.
We also learned about some of the important relationships that God wants us to have:
- In our family (love and protect them - unlike Joseph's brothers)
- With our friends (Choose wise friends!)
- With our heavenly Father (run to Him - Luke 15)
- With the Son of God (Give Jesus a Triumphal Entry today!)
- With the Holy Spirit (He is with us, in us and upon us to help us!)
Remember how God encouraged you as your read Colossians, James, and Phillipians by yourself. Remember how He spoke to you as you had your morning devotions, small groups and even on your emmaus walks? Don't forget!
Remember how you wanted to read the Bible EVERY DAY - go for it. If you missed a few days then why not start again today. Read through the small books in the New Testament - then the Gospels until you have finished the entire New Testament - have a plan!
Don't forget how you want to love God more every day!
Here are some photos to help you not forget.
