Holy Week Camp

This past Thur, Fri, and Sat. the Paz de Dios church had Holy Week Camp.  The retreat center was located on the warm, wet, costal plains about 2.5 hours away from Cuenca.

 

The theme of the camp was Holy Week and "The Culture of Noise" and how we are often so bombarded with noise that we can't hear the Lord speak to us.  Our culture has so much noise, it can not think.  We are always listening to something: TV, radio, iPod, etc.

 

I shared one session focusing on the technology used to make the noise.  I was also in charge of the cabin of teenage and collage-age guys.  I have to say they were some of the best behaved guys I've worked with.  They were responsible, so I didn't really need to lay down many rules, and yet they knew how to have fun.  We had a lot of good laughs together.

 

I was thankful not to have a lot of responsibilities this retreat.  I felt like I was able to get some much needed rest.
