To the Retreat!

Last Sunday morning as the students left our classroom, one of our boys asked me, "Pastor Michelle, what is a retreat?" Well, tomorrow he and his twenty classmates will find out.

Our confirmands, a variety of their mentors, Andrew and I will be on retreat. Leaving the world, video games, parents/family, and school behind to focus on stuff of God (i.e. worship and the sacraments). Then, on Sunday morning we will stop talking about worship and go do it with two very different congregations. This is one of my favorite confirmation class events (actually all of the events are my favorite)!

Our prayers will be with our congregation here at home- as we learn, play and worship elsewhere. May we be blessed and may God be honored by our retreat.
