Weekend of camping at Red Oak

Psalm 133 says, "How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity?  It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard...............  For there the Lord bestows his blessing......."    

This past weekend about 60 of us from the fellowship went camping at Red Oak Campground in Scandia.  And many more came up the evenings.  Let me just say that it is truly a beautiful thing when the Body of Christ not only loves, but simply enjoys each other.  This is the type of army that God can use to change the world.

We had such a great time.  There was camping, biking, a playground, swimming pool, boating on Kinzua and great times of eating and spending time relaxing and getting refreshed.  We truly live in a beautiful area of the world and I love taking advantage of what God has put in our "backyard".  Surprisingly, we even had nice weather.  It rained all morning Friday and then was beautiful from noon on Friday through Saturday in the middle of the night.  That means we had nearly 38 consecutive hours of no rain.  Pretty good for this summer  :-)

There is already talk about how to do it even better next year.  So, make your plans now.  Hey, you all have a tremendous week.  We have much to be thankful for.
