We had a blast playing and growing together!

I’d like to share a few highlights I observed:

  1. On our bus ride up the driver  said, “Wow! Your group are angels!” I always enjoy it when other people think our group is well-behaved ;)
  2. I saw our group mixing up cliques really well! I saw middle schoolers connecting with new people and choosing to include each other!
  3. I loved how our group lead the way during worship times – no reservations!
  4. I saw middle schoolers freely praying out loud for each other!
  5. I was privileged to be part of conversations where middle schoolers chose to step up in faith!

My favorite middle schooler quote from the weekend: “I would give anything to be close with God!”

Please join me in asking God for more!

-Daniel
