I cant even describe how amazing this weekend was. Sure, some friends were there, but I have never gotten so much from a retreat like this before. The sessions were amazing, and the guest speaker Joel Davis was so good. He really spoke. From his heart. He led worship and made everything awesome. I loved praising God this weekned {Not that I dont love to do that all the time} But this weekend felt like so much more. The other aspect that got me emotional is that it was my sister's last retreat. She is going to college. I started to tear up as I saw her standing up there. She is so pretty. I know that we fight, and she doesnt like me as her sister, but I am so grateful to have her. I dont know what I would do without her. Anyways, the games and hanging out this weekend was pretty fun! I have to admit, it was soo funny when some of the leaders came out in their costumes :) But my favorite part was when Joshua Alloway tackled them all. Haha! But Saturday night was pretty spent (until 5:00am) In the crossings just hanging out with people. It was so uplifting. But darn the weather this weekend! It was freeeeeezing. It even snowed a bit. It was gorgeous though. It seems like Camp Willow Run goes on forever, its so beautiful. Surprisingly, I didnt take many pictures this weekend.. Well 446.. But I love taking pictures, so whatever. The other great part of Saturday, was the cheering competition. It was hilarious! The Sexy Snowmen won, they deserved it. But I had the best group leaders. Cronson, and his girlfriend Nicole. Ah, they were great. I know I'm going to miss this weekend a lot, but I am now an official Disciple of Christ, and I couldnt be happier. This weekend has been an eye opener. As Joel said, "Everyday we should deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Jesus." I can't wait to dive deeper. Thank you God for giving me the opportunity to go this weekend and learn more about you. I am so thankful for your love. Starting new. Have a great week everyone!
P.S. When I read this over.. I realized how random it is, sorry I jump around so much :)
