Youth Retreat.

This weekend, I headed to Camp Vesper Point in Soddy Daisy, Tennessee. It's only about 45 minutes away from Chattanooga, but feels like it's in the middle of nowhere. I really should start carrying a camera, because I definitely don't have any pictures.

I stayed in an unheated spider-infested cabin (This was a hard one--I am TERRIFIED of spiders. But, I came away with no bites and never woke up to one on my face. This is good.) with six girls and another leader. It was so. much. fun. They taught me the Hoedown Throwdown (thanks Miley Cyrus) and we talked about boys and life and God. The weekend included four sessions focused on prayer and God changing your heart, games, free time, a hoedown, a bon fire, great food, great talks, and just having fun.

One downfall: I was sick. I came away very humbled by God allowing me to go, and using me even though I wasn't 100%. All in all it was a great weekend. I really just love those girls.
