We are having a blast! This morning we had a lesson and quiet time and then ended the morning with a little Coneball before lunch! Right now we are doing team building exercises and then we get to do the high ropes course. Later this evening we will cap the retreat off with our final lesson given by a student along with 2 baptisms!
The theme for this weekend is God's Not Dead, based on the music video by the Newsboys. We have talked about how the world thinks that God is dead or never existed and it is our responsibility to show them that this is not the case. We have been called to live lives that show we are different from the world. If we don't live different from the world, the world won't know there is a difference. They won't be able to see the redeeming and life changing power that a relationship with Jesus gives.
Here are some of the verses we will use this weekend: 1 Peter 2:11-12, 1 Peter 2:23, Matthew 5:14-16, Matthew 28:18-20.
I hope that this information will help you have conversations with your student when they return!
