plush annual retreat

2010 - Batam
2011 - KL
2012 - Kuching
2013 - Phuket?

Another blessed time with the gals. What do I value?

I value knowing everyone at a deeper level. I value the deeper connection through time together hearing one another out, worshipping God together, praying together, learning more about being grace-conscious vs sin-conscious, being reminded of the importance of QT and personal time and trust with God which empowers us. I value how God can use a young believer to lead a session which blesses so many. I value having fun together, making silly jokes, laughing together, doing a five hour canoe session together along a 11km long river.. It was indeed a blessed three days. We missed some of the oldies and all the newbies who unfortunately joined the CG too late to make it for the retreat. Next year, if everyone can make it, it will be a big group of 24. Perhaps we can rent 3 villas at Phuket. What a glorious time that will be.

Things are always not the same after every retreat. I pray that God will take hold of the deposit He has given to each and every one of us so that this trip will cause all of us to bear more fruit in our own respective ways. :)
