Samaipata

Last weekend we went on a high school retreat near the town of Samaipata (semi-pa-ta). All week the high schoolers had been listening to Franco Salvatori speak at their school, and they finished off the experience by escaping into the mountains for a few days for some fellowship and some great teaching from God's word. We loved it there! We were 4,000 feet higher in elevation than Santa Cruz, so it was a lot cooler. We even got to wear sweatshirts in the evenings (huge bonus).


The students did a lot of team-building and bonding through various activities. We got to help facilitate some of the games and activities, as well as develop some relationships with the students. It is so much fun to see God at work in the youth here!
