when plan a fails...

This weekend was the Fall retreat for MOSAIC. We were suppose to go camping all weekend, but God decided we needed some rain and we ended up staying at Haven both nights. Honestly I loved it! There was a sense of comfort there and we were all able to just sit back and relax.

Amy picked a great quote to base the weekend off from, it said "Stop chasing happiness and let God find you." We talked about the beatitudes from the point of happiness is verses Blessed are. I am always totally blown away as to how God speaks through Amy. This retreat was just another example of that.

This weekend was a chance for all our students to see into each others lives. One particular student's life was falling apart and my heart continues to break for her. She lives with her Grandparents, her dad is in and out, but beat her up so badly this spring that he has a court order to stay away, and I don't know where her mom is. It was so beautiful to see our group pray over her, on her birthday and celebrate who she is.

So here are some photos from the weekend. I just think of the weekend this way, when plan A fails and plan B gets rained out, try for plan C mixed with some SPAM and peewee baseball.
