25 youth and 10 adults traveled to Camp Challenge this past weekend for the annual youth winter retreat. This year's theme was "Impressions", focusing on leadership and what impression each of our lives will leave on those around us. Guest speaker, Scott McDonald, challenged and inspired the teens to consider how God uses young people to lead and be world-changers. Eric Hunt and Ethan Harting led in worship for the retreat.
Aside from the fun of hanging out together and tubing down wintry slopes, here are some memorable moments as quoted by some of the "winter retreaters":
- "I'd have to say the part I enjoyed the most was Scott's teaching....it's something that will help me take the next step in my walk with Christ."
- "I loved worship with Ethan and Eric!"
- "I was trying to figure out how the theme of the weekend was gonna help in my current life, and i was pretty much blown away by how much it fit in and helped me right now."
- "I really enjoyed the ride down with all the younger kids...not!"
- "My favorite part..well, as always I loved the candlelight service we traditonally have on Saturday night. And my room was just fun, with Ashley as our chaperone."
- "It was the best weekend ever!"
Watch and see how God will use our young leaders to make a difference for Him!
