Last weekend the men of the church had a beautiful getaway in the high sierras of Durango for spiritual retreat, and a time to learn to pray. We had between 40 and 50 men go, and several of the men were new faces that are not yet Christians.The place itself inspires one to praise the Creator with its impressive mountains, diversity of wildlife, towering pine trees, and extreme temperatures. During the day, the temperatures were very nice, but at night... it was FREEZING cold!!! I shivered all night long, even though I was wearing two layers.
We woke up with frost covering the forest floor. After waking up we all walked over a mile to the mountain lake, singing and praising all the way. The frost covering the plants almost looked like foam. I have never seen anything like it.
The most special time for me was Sunday morning. All of the baptized believers share the Lord's Supper together in an unforgettable moment. This trip was hard to beat.
Take a look at my photo page and participate in the adventure yourself.
