Junior High Retreat 2010 - Day 2


The next day after breakfast we went to the high ropes course were they had a rock climbing wall...








The Power Pole...













and the Quad...


















After getting all hot an sweaty on the ropes courses, we got to cool down in the lake!






The boys played football...




some of the girls played in the sand...





we went on the water slide...








and blobbed each other....












During our lesson and discussion time that day, we talked about how the destination for unrepentant sinners is Hell. We looked at passages in the Bible that showed what Hell is like. We talked about how there is a great separation between Heaven and Hell; once you're there, you're there. Nothing you or anyone else can do can provide relief. Not being from a Christian family, or doing good works or even going to a good church will save anyone. (Luke 16:19-31) Only trusting in Christ's righteousness, His taking the punishment (God's wrath) for sin on the cross and dying in our place and believing that God raised Him from the dead will save you.


That evening before we played capture the flag, we played a game so we could get to know everyone's name better. Everyone had a lot of fun... and were exhausted when the day was over.
