Youth Retreat

The youth group had the opportunity to attend the Super High Retreat at Camp Willow Run on November 5-7.  The camp is located on Lake Gaston in Littleton, North Carolina.

Todd Wyrick was the speaker.  He was a youth minister and is now a full-time evangelist.  He shared his love for the Lord and challenged us to live holy lives.  He spoke from I Peter on suffering and the challenges we will face as Christians.  We youth leaders, Miles & Sharon Pruett and Steve & Anita Graber, had the chance to meet with Todd and several other youth leaders to discuss ideas and struggles we face leading our youth.

God blessed our weekend with beautiful sunny weather.  In our free time we were able to climb the rock wall, challenge the high ropes course, play basketball, ping-pong, canoe, and many other activities.  We slept in boxcars and enjoyed delicious home cooked meals.  We thank God for the chance to lead this group of young people.  They are a blessing to be around.  We pray that we will all be challenged to live more holy lives and to look for opportunities to reach out to others and share God’s Word.
