Winter Retreat 2009 - North West Family Church
19Jan
We just got back from our second winter retreat with North West Family Church in Calgary. There we joined Pastor Joe Battiston and 21 of the youth for yet another, awesome winter retreat. We travelled 20min. outside the city to a camp where we spent the weekend worshiping God together, learning from the Word and building on relationships we started last year. It was so awesome to see the growth in that youth group from just one year ago. No holding back with these guys... whether it was in worship or in pranks, they are an all or nothing kinda of crowd. It made for a fun and adventurous weekend.
God did some pretty awesome things. Youth received their baptism and freedom from all kinda of strongholds in their lives. Many of them dove into worship in ways they had not in the past. On Sunday morning the opportunity came for anyone who wished to give a testimony and so it was such a blessing to hear of God's work from the youth themselves. After seeing and hearing about God move in so many unique ways, we came away from the weekend feeling so satisfied. Having just a small part of what God is doing in today's generation is our raison d'être.
We are so blessed!
