Cross Culture Youth Retreat - May 15-17, 2009
Theme: "Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith." (Hebrews 12:2)
After all the months of prayer, preparation, and promises, the Cross Culture retreat is over - but far from forgotten by the
27 kids and 4 leaders who experienced the thrill of a lifetime and some very unique and precious time alone with God!
Some pictorial highlights from an extraordinary weekend.
It was a time to remember and a time of drawing closer to nature, to each other, and to the Lord!
"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. (Hebrews12:1-2)
