LU Retreat...

Chris and I had a BLESSED time with 20 Liberty University students who are going to Ethiopia in May to serve at Camp Langano. What a terrific group of young people! It was a BLAST to lead this short retreat with John and Danielle....how totally cool was that!.....a great blessing. I'm so impressed with John & Danielle's ministry to these LU students, they are AWESOME leaders!

I spoke on "Setting Your Minds On Things Above" and then we engaged the students in a creative team building practical. Lots of fun, lots of team bonding. We all wished it was a day longer!

Pray for the team as they finish their fund raising and prepare to minister to the Ethiopian youth at Langano. They will be piloting the first 80 residential camper experience (double the number of normal campers)! What we learn from this experience will be applied to the summer camps. We don't want to lose the intimacy of the camp experience that we have had in the past but we need to provide this camping opportunity to lots more SF youth participants throughout the country. Eventually, we want to fill up all 144 beds we now have in our new cabins. With increased numbers of campers comes increased risk, so please pray for this May experience with the LU students and the new programming format. Thank You!
