August

I'm trying to get used to this blog thing, and not doing so great. That being said, my new commitment is to blog once a week. August was a blur with getting kids back to school and finishing up summer. The highlight however was a WILD Quest Retreat in Peoria, IL. The retreat was held at the Hanssen Ranch and had women attending from several churches in the area. The activities were fun, we even got to fire a revolver which was a new experience for all. The best part was meeting the women and talking about their struggles. We spent several hours sitting around and African style fire pit sharing about our lives. It was a joy for me to share the lessons God has taught me, and encourage the women into a journey to discover who God created them to be. It was so exciting to help women embrace the truth that their stories are God victories and are meant to be shared.
I hope to go back again sometime in the future. Thank you ladies of Peoria! You are all beautiful.

Now I am in the heat of planning the Big Canyon Music Fest on Sept. 19 and 20th. It is a big event and we are hoping to get alot of people up to Big Canyon Ranch to experience what there is to offer. I will need a break after that for sure.

Until next week.
