What an amazing weekend!  We’re back from our Winter Retreat: The Hunger & Thirst Games.  I’m grateful for a record attendance, cooperative weather, safety, and powerful worship, and meaningful time together and God’s Word.  You can checkout pictures from the retreat here.

Christmas Caroling & Party – we had a blast tonight.  We began our evening caroling at a local retirement center.  We finished up with a party: a cookie decorating contest, snacks, and caroling.

Keeping up online (Twitter & Instagram):  There are plenty of ways to find out what’s going on. This blog, emailed to you weekly is one of the best.  Of course there are our printed updates through the bulletin (weekly), the Pulse (monthly), and In-Touch (quarterly). But now you can see updates from me, our leaders, and even the students.  Follow us through the following links:

As many of you know, tonight was Growth Group Night, where are groups enjoyed the entire evening however they wanted.  Each group did something different, and as you can see, they had a blast!

I have to admit, I love a good road trip, which is why I enjoyed our Christian College Trip last week so much.  Our upperclassmen got to visit five schools. While on the road, we had plenty of opportunity to talk about our futures, and what God has in store for us.
