June 9-12 we'll be heading to McKinney Falls State Park for a great trip. (Check out the video on their site too.) Within the city limits of Austin, McKinney Falls offers a great location for us. They have plenty of hiking/biking trails and places to swim and fish. We'll be staying in screened shelter/cabins with bunk beds (nobody has to bring a cot). We'll also spend one day at the Volente Beach Waterpark.
This annual trip is always one of the best! "Our plan is to have no plan." In this busy world, we live our lives frantically running from one event to the next. This trip is a total break from it all. Our goal is to have so little to do that we actually get a little bored. Why??? Why would any youth leaders want to bore their students? 'Cause when we get bored, we also get creative. And when we get creative, craziness is sure to follow, and amazing memories are made.
God revealed Himself first to us as "Creator" (Genesis 1) and then He said we were made in His image. That means we were made to create too. But we don't ever slow down long enough to become creators. We're too busy consuming stuff that others create. Our hope/goal is that we can slow down and notice God - to slow down and begin to think about Him - to slow down and create space - space for Him to work and space that will allow us to imagine and create new lives in connection with Him.
