We have over 100 pictures of all the crazy fun, great small groups and awesome worship and we need your ideas to help us add titles to them. Look through the pictures and then fill out the form at the bottom of the page with your caption ideas. You can submit as many as you like, but do it quick. We'll be adding your submissions to the page in the next few weeks.

We took over 100 students on our annual spring retreat to the Tal Hai Retreat Center in Honeybrook, PA. God moved in amazing ways in the lives of the teenages. Students spent over three and a half hours during the Saturday evening service in worship and in prayer. Several adults and students laid hands on, anointed, and prayed for students who wanted God to shatter the walls that had been built up

in their lives. Students raised their hands, praised God, cried, and prayed for each other throughout the evening. Earlier that day, every student took 2 of the workshops of their choice on various topics including Decision Making, Worship, Forgiveness, Surviving your parents, Loving yourself, Developing a Quiet Time, Studying the Bible, God's Will, and Sharing Christ. These were powerful opportunities for the students to really get into what God wanted to teach them this weekend. During the afternoon, everyone ran a 2-hour challenge course and scavenger hunt in our small groups… which was a blast. The students walked away from this weekend with a fresh touch from God and a new fire about His plan for their lives. He doesn't want us to live with regrets. He wants us to 'Fight the good fight… to finish the race… and keep the faith…' 2 Tim 4:7
