Retreats
Hume Lake!
For our winter and summer retreats we go to beautiful Hume Lake. Hume is located 4 hours south-east of Palo Alto. It is a phenomenal place for junior high students to get away from the everyday distractions and learn more about who God is.

AN AWEFUL LIFE!
We were created to worship God and be in awe of who He is. If we are
honest with ourselves, we must admit that our lives are an act of
worship, however, too often that worship goes to celebrities, leaders in
the church, or ourselves instead of the One who is truly worthy. When
we look at who God is and the gift of His son, Jesus, we should fall to
our knees and be in awe that God, in his great mercy, desires to be in a
relationship with us. This should cause us to respond by offering all
that we are back to him as a living sacrifice, a life that is set apart
from the world and acceptable to God. A life lived in awe of who God is.
AN AWEFUL LIFE takes a look at the lives of individuals who have learned to live each moment in awe of God’s mercy. We will learn what day to day worship is,
and seek out practical ways we can offer our bodies to God as a living
sacrifice.
Summer 2012
July 1 - 7, 2012
Join us at Hume Lake, July 1-7, for the Phantastical Journey of the Wandering Lites.
The Bible tells us that God is sufficient. That is easy to believe, but it is a constant challenge to put that belief into action. Even when God's sufficiency has been magnificently displayed, we still tend to reject or forget it. This struggle is illuminated by the story of the Israelites as they literally followed the visible presence of God out of Egypt, yet still rejected, replaced, and simply forgot His provision and guidance. This summer at Hume Lake we will reflect on God's sufficiency in spite of our wavering faith as we join the "Phantastical Journey of the Wandering Lites.
