Sunday: Kara Filius and I drove to the Holiday Inn in Lansing for a youth group gathering through her Lutheran Church. There were about 1,500 students at this retreat. Roomed with Jennifer Morehouse, Renae Silk, Kara, and Denise Hobby.
Monday: Our entire church group ate breakfast together and then went to a mass gathering. We got together in groups and talked about our struggles. I didn't realize how hard it was for Kara in Russia. She was an exchange student in Russia while in high school. We took the shuttle to the Governor's Inn for some skill shops.
Tuesday: We had to do an activity in which each of us had a handicap. I was blind and others were paralyzed. It taught me how dependent we are on each other and to trust others. Went to a 2nd skill shop. This one was about Arabic family structures.
Wednesday: We packed our bags and went to our core groups and told what we learned during this retreat.
