Who Am I Winter Retreat 2013

Hello my beautiful readers. So I am back to tell you guys about the retreat I attended from January 2nd - 4th .  I've attended many retreats ever since I was really little but it was my first time going as a staff. I was one of the two girl staff that went. It was a totally different experience because I wasn't going to this retreat for myself, but for the kids. I was there to help them meet and strengthen their relationship with God.

During praying time, it was really sad to see all these kids crying because I've been there before. I know how lonely high school can be. I know the stress they are going through from getting bullied, finding their identity, and choosing a career. I wanted for them to meet Jesus and realize that He is always there for them.

I also realized that I needed to improve on my praying. I asked my pastor to recommend a book about praying and hopefully I'll have it by this month! I was also jealous of people who were gifted with praying. I SUCK at praying. I know it's from a lack of practice but at the same time, I always heard people praying in Korean. Hopefully, the book will make me a better prayer and strengthen my bond with the man up in theee skkkkkkkkkkkkkkky!


beautiful staff members :)
