Doane Men's retreat


This weekend I got to be part of the Doane men's retreat just outside of Milford. It was awesome! FCA president Robbie spoke on leading/obeying God, Alum Jordan delivered the goods on sexual purity, CCC leader Wes talked about brotherhood, and I explained the gospel. Robbie and Wes planned and led all the activities for the weekend and did such a good job...

The first night we broke into two teams (designated by the colored bandanas) and then had different games throughout the weekend- low ropes course, capture the flag, dodgeball, ultimate frisbee. The winner of each game obtained the travelling trophy, which was a sweet lawn gnome, and the cumulative winner was crowned the weekend's champion.

It was awesome to see all of the Doane guys coming together as the body of Christ and making comitments to God and one another; comitments that will change the eternal desitination of souls at Doane. I can't wait to hear the stories of these comitments coming to fruition back on campus.
