Rooted

Well, today is a Thurday... and tomorrow I will load a big yellow school bus with many, many Junior high students to head to our Fall Retreat. They are a blessing. We took some time off this summer to focus our efforts on staff training and such so our kick off for Junior High ministry was the first week in September. I went home that night with a slight weeze because they had me laughing so hard. Again, they are a blessing. Back to my original reason for writing. I am teaching my first ever retreat. I have spoken at retreats before, but never every session, and coming up with the weekend theme. I am not stressed... but I feel responsible. Responsible to handle the Word of God correctly. Responsible to teach clearly. Responsible to do what I can and surrender it all to God. I am praying the Holy Spirit shows up in a powerful way this weekend and illuminates the Word of God to us. Please pray for me. Our theme for the weekend is Rooted. Rooted in Christ and rooted in love. Thanks so much! Erin
