Play and Pray




Every year NCC has a play and pray retreat. Pastor Mark takes everyone out to some place to have fun and pray together. This was mine and Shelly's first trip with the team. We had so much fun. We went to Osprey Point right near St Michael's. What a beautiful place. We kayaked, canoed, played corn hole, lacrosse, football, beach volleyball, ate lots of food, and prayed. This was definitely a highlight. It is so awesome to be a part of such a great team. There is so much moral here as a team its erie. Our number one priority (apart from God of course) is family and fun. Everything else flows from that. We had so much fun goofing and spending time together. It felt like a huge family vacation. One day we played beach volleyball for hours. I am still sore today from it:) 

The word for today is grateful. I am grateful to God for family and friends. I am grateful to God for where we are as a family and what we have the privilege of doing each and everyday. What are you grateful for?
