Pines Ranch

We got a wonderful opportunity to get away this past weekend! For awhile now, W & I have been praying about where we wanted to formally serve as a team in our church. As Christians, we know we are called to serve in some capacity. Although we have been enjoying receiving from the body of Christ, we knew it was time to commit. So this weekend the youth leadership (middle school, high school & young adults) were having a retreat for those involved or looking to get involved. It was so awesome to get to know more people from VBC, hear & be reminded of God's refreshing truths, and make a commit to serve. And the place we stayed at was A.M.azing!! Truly a resort in the foothills!! Here's our room:I really wish I took more pictures..the pool & slide were so cool as was the ranch lodge. Everything was decked out in old western/country motif!! We are so excited to be committing a year of service to Quest (young adult) ministry. We both love the shepherding pastor's vision and method for running things. His wife is also due in November so he's totally understanding of how our involvement will change during the year, but we hope our little one gets the chance to be raised by a community-- not just us.
