Last weekend we took our students to Camp Caraway for our Fall Retreat. We had an amazing time together as a group. God was working and it was evident. We are so excited about this upcoming year, we know that there are greater things yet to come.
This happened...one of the funniest things ever.
We talked a lot about Going Back to the Start last weekend- Spending time with Jesus (reading His word) develops a deeper Love for Him which leads us to obedience - which unity is a by product of. If we want to bring Jesus to others we have to be united, time to get Back to the Start.
If you love me, you will keep my commandments. John 14:15
I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. John 17:33
Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. 2 Corinthians 13:11
So next week Share Your Story comes back! I'm excited to start back up again. There are some awesome young women who have great encouragement to give so check back next Wednesday for that!
Have a wonderful Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
I have such great memories from youth camps growing up. There's nothing like it! :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like such a wonderful time. My boys went to a similar camp this summer and the theme was "Call Me Jonah." What a blessing to get recharged and renewed!
