8/10/09 Our church staff had a retreat today. It is amazing the energy that flows into an individual and a group when we pull back and look at things differently. We began with a drumming circle with teacher who took us from chaos to harmony. We learned several techniques. Mostly we learned to listen to each other and to work together.
One of our church members has a lakehouse nearby and let us use it. There we did some looking back at what we had been doing the past year. We prayed together. We ate a bountiful lunch together. We started discerning the unique reason God has called our congregation into being, as we began thinking about a church mission statement. We did some problem solving. Always we end by looking back over the meeting and seeing how Christ has shown up in our time together.
Love,
Lynn
