Choir Retreat

We had a marvelous weekend at our annual choir retreat at ECCO.  The theme was hymns and several choir members shared devotions based on hymns that were favorites or personally meaningful.  Good singing, good fellowship, good food, great location.

I enjoyed a nature walk before breakfast Saturday and a prayer walk during our individual worship time on Sunday morning.

The retreat center has a little path with the 

Station of the Cross.  This is right at 

the beginning.

It was a different kind of praying to stop 

at each of the stations and ponder over each

step of Jesus' journey to the cross.

At each station I was reminded of different groups

of people.  It was a very rich intercessory 

experience.
