Monadnock Bible Conference - Singles Retreat

October 5,6,& 7, 2007


 

We had a group of singles from RICSF attend this dynamic conference. David Hodge's talk on " How to be encouraged in a discouraging world" was awesome.   We all had a great time.

You might want to put it on next year's calendar as a "must do"!

Our MC for the conference.

 

David Hodge, our Speaker

 

       

Sunrise for the early risers!

   

Enjoying the fellowship on the grounds of Mt. Monadnock Bible Center.  

Porch time was great in those rocking chairs!

 

Where to next?

 

   Roomies!

 

     

Roomies - now you feel the love!

 

                    

                                                            Lynn & Kamal

 

 Lynn, catching up on the sleep - those forty winks go by so fast!

 

Being alert and awake for the best parts!

    

        

 Getting ready for the rope course.

      

         

"Uh, I don't remember tying it like that in Girl Scouts!"

  

                                                On the ropes!

                

The trees were sprouting people!

 

 

An then, just legs!

 

 

    

   You gotta run the rope course, THEN you can climb to the zip line!

 

And away we go!

    

                                          

The view is just awesome!

 

          

   If Lynn can do it, so can I!

     

O.K., I'm up here.  Now whata I do?

 

                                              

Look Ma!  No Hands!

    

                                      

   Cathy going in for the landing!

   

   

 Who's next?

  

 

                                            Ooooh, let me do it myself!

        

               

No, No.  don't let go I'm not ready yet!

  

 Worry for nothing!  A piece of cake!

 

  

Lynn, doing the rope walk!

Lynn's got the hang of it now

 

Oops!   I need a push! 

   

 

    

You don't need the ladder - just gimme a push!

 

 Looking down the hill at the MBC!

 

 

 

Beautiful grounds of the Monadnock Bible Conference Center

A tranquil place to be!

 

Complete with a babbling brook!

   

Laughter and Fellowship!

    

Canoeing on the lake

Can it get much better than this?

 

 

 

A motorboat ride around the lake - even the group leaders have fun!

 

Ah Ha!    Someone got a picture of the photographer. 

She took all these photos! 

Good job Holly!

 Hey, you gotta be careful and watch the wake! 

There are kayaks and canoes around here!

 

 

Awesome views!  It keeps getting better and better!

  

 

 

 

Holly is MBC's biggest fan! 

Woman's conference, Singles Retreat, etc. etc.

 

Let's play a little ball!

 

        

    Batter up!

Great Hit!  Run, Run!

      

            SAFE at 2nd!

            

       

That's O.K.!  You look 'em over!  Make him pitch to ya!

 

     

You better not be trying to steal! 

We don't do that here - we're Christian!

 

The Ringer for the Team! 

It's all that field time he's had during the Spring & Summer!

 

No pressure, but are you aware that the bases ARE loaded!

 

I know I can hit a home run! 

The view of the outfield can be distracting!

Strike?  Strike!   Why is it a strike?

It's a line drive!   

Run!   Run!   Run!

 

Fair Ball!

Another home run? 

They're killing us!

Throw!   Throw!    Throw it to home!

 

 

 

And now for a little fun with paint!

       

Holly gears up for Paint Ball!

 

 

 

Our last night!  The Campfire!

Great campfire!

 

Laughter - good for the soul!

 

The rain held off

until the very last day! 

Even beautiful in the rain!

 

 

Filling out those evals!

 

Our last meal together as a group!

This was where all the action was.

Even Dustin Hoffman was impressed!

Our worship team leader!

The worship team did such a great job! 

God's presence could be felt everywhere! 

 

 

The "dream team"  from

Central Mass Christian Singles!

 

Ya all come back now, ya hear!

 

 

Teachings & Testimonies

 

Last words of wisdom & encouragement

from speaker David Hodge!

 

 

We gave him a standing ovation. 

He appreciated it!

 

Was it really David Hodge?

Or was it Dustin Hoffman in disguise???

 

 

Lynn, such a quick study! 

Already practicing encouragement!

 

 

More encouraging gong on!

 

A serious discussion after our last meal together.

 

Peg & Patty - reflecting on the conference -

gearing up for the challenges facing them at home!

 

The road toward home . . . . . .
