Recently our CR group from MRCC had a fall retreat at Camp Rock Creek in Norman, Oklahoma. We had a wonderful time! There is just something amazing about worshiping outside IN nature and praising God!
We arrived to the campsite Saturday, October 30th around 11 AM and room assignments were given out while lunch was being prepared. After lunch Sheldon had prepared some games for us, the games required that we work together as a team to accomplish the tasks. After games we had free time, which mostly consisted of pumpkin carving and letting the kids run around.
Later that night we had a costume contest for adults and kids! The kids got to trick-or-treat at each cabin and got a ton of candy! After trick-or-treat Dan shared with us a wonderful lesson and we were able to praise God once again! S'mores around the campfire followed our evening lesson – we roasted a lot of marshmallows!!
Several stayed up into the wee hours of the morning playing board games while others stayed awake into the wee hours of the morning due to some coyotes making scary noises out in the woods – very fitting for a Halloween camp out!
Sunday morning we had an amazing breakfast and then got to hear Micah preach on service and giving back. If you didn’t come this year, you really need to consider joining us next year!!
We were truly blessed with amazing weather, amazing surroundings, amazing praise & worship, amazing lessons, and had an amazing time that we won’t soon forget!
Well….there are SOME things we wish we could forget…..
Enough said.
Grateful Believers,
Tara & Karyn
