LIFE ISN'T MEASURED BY THE BREATHS YOU TAKE, BUT BY THE MOMENTS THAT TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY!

Small Group Retreat at New Life Ranch

This years small group retreat was held at New Life Ranch in the Ozark foothills. The theme was Rise. Toby & Lane challenged us to rise above mediocrity & to thrive in our relationship with God. I couldn't think of any better place to begin this journey, than in God's creation! We had a great time. Micah Kersh came to lead worship for the weekend (which was awesome)& his family came with him, so we got to spend some time with some of our long lost buddies. The kids loved playing together & going on some "adventures". We went on hikes, jumped in leaves, & looked at all kinds of nature. We spent some time in our cabins (really nice accommodations for a camp) watching movies & talking. The kids got to sleep on bunk beds, which excited Tatum to no end. She always talks about sleeping on the top bunk when Cross gets his. We convinced Cross that his bed was a fort, so he was happy. They are already talking about going again next year.

I thought this was cute how Cross & Jude were watching the students in the canoes from the window.
Silly face picture. Jude's just happy to be there!
