Worthy is the 10:31 (my Church's Youth Ministry) Ministry's annual summer retreat where we get away from our normal surroundings (to a retreat center on the Chesapeake Bay) to hear from God’s Word, worship, and enjoy fellowship together. :)
AND ITS IN 2 DAYS!
This year is my Junior year, which means that this is my 2nd to last youth retreat. I'm planning on making the most of it. :)
The theme this year is Jesus Changes Everything. I'm so looking forward to hearing even more about this topic.
Besides all of the amazing worship, hearing from God's word, and the fellowship, there are some amazing activities for free time. A giant swing, zip lines, rope courses, rock walls, and a number of other things.
I'm pretty ecstatic!! There will be so much to do, so many people to see, and so many wonderful things to learn!
I have so many memories from previous retreats! Praying, laughing, singing, having quiet times that were actually quiet, witnessing one of the most incredible storms i've ever seen, playing in the rain, eating lots of junk food, drinking blue juice that we decided to call mermaid pee, having boys steal all my food, meeting new friends, consuming obscene amounts of gummy worms, raspberry chocolate, collecting tiny seashells, being "adopted" by a group of senior girls(in my freshman year), having random dance parties, taking hundreds of pictures, walks by the bay during free time, and my all-time favorite memories are when Amy Calderone prayed for me both during my first retreat, and last year's retreat.
And this year, instead of being a newbie I get to go around with my favorite Freshie, Hayley. :)
I have a feeling that this will be the greatest Youth Retreat yet!!
I'll take tons of pictures and do an After Worthy post. :D
This also means I won't be here to post for the next 6 days or so, so...yeah :)
BE BACK MONDAY! :D
Love muchly,
Bekah
