Seymour Weekend O' Fun!!


This weekend we are taking our youth group to a very 'high class' *cough* chalet up at Seymour!! Retreats are always awesome because everyone is removed from their 'regular lives' and are rid of their usual responsibilities. In my experience, youth retreats are INSANE WEEKENDS OF CRAZY/PSYCHO FUN!! Sleeping bag races down the stairs, dance parties in the kitchen, massive pillow fights, blitz fury...ahhh, brilliant!! I thought I would post some prayer requests for the weekend so that you can be praying for us while we're up at Seymour.

- Pray for safety as we travel up to Seymour (lots of us have good old 'student vehicles')
- Pray for safety for those youth who will be going snowboarding/skiing on Saturday.
- Pray for Jason, Matt and myself as we are doing the 'speaking sessions' for the weekend. Please pray that God will speak through us and that we will be sensitive to what He is wanting us to share.
- Pray for all of the sponsors as we spend time with the youth. Pray for lots of 'bonding' opportunities and openness in sharing.
- Pray for those youth who are still seeking. Pray that they will take the time to stop and listen as God speaks to them
- Pray also for those youth who have made a committment to Christ. Pray that they will continue to grow in their faith and be an example/encouragement to those youth that are still seeking
- Pray for unity among our group. Please pray that everyone feels included/valued and that friendships are strengthened and new friendships are made.
- ** Please pray that God will speak powerfully to us this weekend and that HE will be our main focus**
