2006 Sisters' Retreat
Our first annual Sisters' Retreat was held August 25-26th. Sister Amanda McLeod from Illinois lead us in a series of classes/exercises beginning Friday night. Supper, name game, baby shower for Missy, personal information, What can I give? What would I like to receive?, prayer groups, and finally "Knowing God" - we traveled through seven circles (from casual to intimate) to reach a relationship with our Father in heaven.
We (as a group) were ready to give acceptance, friendship, encouragement, compassion, trust, fun, working hands, joy, purpose, and peace. We all shared inspirational scripture, how to make God more real in our every day lives, and ways to help and encourage others.
We all enjoyed our sleepover on Friday night - being able to talk late into the night and have some fun together was a renewal to our spirits!
Sister Hannah Fadelle accompanied Sister Amanda from Illinois - we so love our sisters from afar!
Everyone left uplifted and ready to share the Word of God with our family and friends!
