Earlier this week, I got to take Jake on a fun shopping outing to the Good Will store. He was shopping for his youth group 180 retreat. On the Saturday night they were to have a dance with the theme, "Good Will Get Down". With his siblings help and mine, we helped him find the perfect outfit. We had a lot of laughs finding things in the store. The hat was the best, it said, "Should have been a cowboy." On Friday evening, I took Jake and dropped him off at Hidden Acres for the Cornerstone youth retreat with 190 other middle school kids. I checked him in to his bunk room above the family life center. At least he won't freeze being in those rooms verses the cabins. He was so excited and nervous. All 12+ kids in his group were attending and there was a lot of excited energy in the boys running all over when Jake picked his bunk. Mark picked him up on Sunday morning. Jake has two great leaders. Alex and Nathan. He enjoys them very much and they are young and fun and love the Lord. I am so thankful for the church group, the leaders and the group of boys Jake is getting to know. Having fellow believer friends is priceless.
Later in the month, Jayden went to her high school youth group retreat through Cornerstone. She doesn't have a small group like she used too, so that made it harder. She had to jump in a group of girls that she didn't know . She got along ok, but wished she had a small group to connect with. As always during the retreats, the game time is always fun and full of action. Jayden took this selfie.
