As a staff we have just had two relaxing days of time together. Our first day is always the same. We get together at a hotel and play games, meditate and pray together, review the core values of Amor and talk about the theme verse and vision of Amor. Sometimes we have a movie thrown in for variety. This year we watched "Chariots of Fire". For all of you who like that movie, I am very sorry but that movie really is very boring. I am glad we took a break for ice cream but I really didn't want to come back to the movie.I wrote about our theme verse in my last blog. We are looking at ourselves and at the ministry to see where we are lukewarm. We want to be HOT! On fire for the Lord and the mission He has called us to. Renew the passion and zeal of His people and our love for them.
Our second day has evolved to the perfect day! We went to Mission Beach from 10am to 2pm for fun games and chillin' on the beach. It was fantastic. I have learned that I am pretty good at Ladder Balls when teamed with Kellie. We ruled all three games we played. We even beat the boys. It was awesome. I took a nap and we had bbq chicken. It was splendid. I love that it is so important to the leaders here at Amor to treat us to time away from the office, to reflect, recoup and to unify and enjoy each other. It has turned into one of my favorite things of the year.
"I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot - I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of my mouth!" Revelation 3:15-16
