This Weekend!

The retreat is finally almost here! And with 16 teens going we had to move up to a bigger cabin - and one that is on Big Bear Lake! I'm looking forward to an awesome weekend studying Joshua and what is means to live in the Here & Now.

We will LEAVE the church building no later than 4:00 p.m. this Friday. Please arrive at the building before this time so that we can pack up our cars. There will be people at the building at 3:30 ready to load cars. We should return to the church building on Sunday between 12:00-1:00.

Teens should pack the following items: a Bible, warm clothes for Saturday and Sunday, casual clothes for lounging around the cabin, pajamas, bathroom supplies, a sleeping bag, pillow, towel. We’re planning on going sledding on Saturday afternoon so bring a warm hat, gloves, sunglasses, scarf or anything else that can aid in keeping you warm! There is a forecast of snow for this weekend - so there is a chance we might be stuck in the cabin on Saturday - you've been warned!

There will be beds and sheets at at the cabin, but not everyone will have a bed so bringing a sleeping bag and pillow is essential. Also, all iPods, cell phones, and any video gameplayers should be left at home - they are detrimental to the weekend and will be kept by me for the duration of the weekend. If you want to get a hold of your teen, use my cell phone.
