This year we went to Veteran, Alberta for our Jr. High youth retreat. It was a camp, which literally looked like a field with buildings on it. We slept in cabins that became really cold at night so you had to sleep with lots of layers of clothes. The water in the toilets, taps, and showers were brown. Even though it wasn’t quite what I expected it was still pretty fun.
There we played games and went to a few services. My favourite game was playing life-sized Dutch Blitz. We also played other games like capture the flag. Another game we played involved a lot of games put in one. I enjoyed playing these games. During the weekend we went to services. We learned that we should be dependent in God. This means that when we need or want something we should just ask Him and He will provide.

Acts 27:35 After he said this, he took some bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.
This is almost like a post about nothing! ^ ^ After our last potluck, I just thought I’d post it anyway. I think it’s “funny” how on each Sunday that we have our potlucks, there seems to be a ”common thread” or a “common theme” in the food that we bring. Last Sunday, we had a “vegetable extravaganza”. Before that, we have had:
- Chicken Fiesta
- Pasta Galore
- Cakes & more cakes
- Pop, pop & pop!!!
- Fried Rice Frenzy
I pray that as we continue to share and partake of food that brings strength to the body, we will equally continue to desire food that nourishes the soul! ^ ^
