Retreat & Cadre

     It has been the busiest weekend in masters so far! We have been at the church late all week working on logistics, tokens, and a bunch of different things in preparation for Oxygen's Transformers Retreat and the 2nd year Opus cadre this weekend. On Friday Pastor Mike and all the youth pastors flew in to experience a retreat with Jeanne Mayo's youth group, and have their own cadre time. It was so good to see someone from home, Beth and I got to see him all weekend and we went out to Starbucks with him Sunday night. It was such an opportunity to be a part of something that pours so much into his life and ministry! I loved it. The retreat went SO well, I got to really know my kids and meet a bunch of other great ones, and God really showed up and impacted their lives. Now it's my job to call them, keep them accountable, and be there for them.. and I can't wait!


     Today was cadre, and we were there all day serving food and just loving on the youth pastors. I love how they leave so happy and refreshed, ready to do more years in youth ministry after just a few short days of being poured into by Jeanne. Seeing Pastor Mike there was also a bonus, as I know he will go home to make an impact there. Here's a few pictures of the retreat, enjoy!
