Pictures from our Small Group Leader Family Retreat

















Some pics from our retreat time together...
I've always found that there's something special about "getting away". Food tastes better, conversations go deeper, relational connections seem stronger... Our retreat with some small group leaders and their families was no exception.
We enjoyed time together with our families - we played, we hiked, we ate, we ate so more. And we also experienced some "rich" moments of sharing, worship, prayer with one another. Together, we dreamed about what community could look like in our groups and in our church and what that would mean for our own lives and leadership...
One of the questions we asked and continue to process is:
What would it look like if everyone lived in deep community?
One of the commitments we looked at was:
The circles I lead are going to be "circles of community".
Dream together with us what our communities could not just look like but actually become if we made space in our relationships and in our hearts for God...
