Secondary Retreat

This blog is long overdue because this event happened over a month ago.  However, I thought that I would share about it anyway.

Our school's anual fall secondary retreat is a chance for staff and students to go away for a weekend for a time of fellowship, bonding, crazy games, extra chapels, etc.  Several students grew spiritually through our efforts.  One even accepted Christ!

While there, I had the opportunity to facilitate several hours of teambuilding activities.  Or rather, I facilitated 5 other staff who facilitated the activities.  It was a joy to me to create an atmosphere where both staff and students were able to get to know each other better, be put out of their comfort zones, and to learn about themselves.

Here are a couple pictures from the team building time:
















Here is a poster that one of my Digital Graphics Class students made after the retreat:

The Embassy of the Kingdom of Heaven

A neat video about an elderly Czech woman being an ambassador of the Kingdom of Heaven in Prague.
