Getaway Blog- Day 1

Our Buses all arrived on time and Getaway got underway with orientation (yes, we cover the rules first) and then our students headed off for a fried chicken dinner.  After dinner, our students found out what small groups they were in and had there first small group Bible study based on the book of Daniel.  Today's study focused on standing firm against the trials and temptations of the world.  After Bible study our students worship with Chad Pollard and Band and then heard the first Getaway message from Pastor Jeff.  Jeff will be focusing on the Holiness of God this week with his main text being 1 Peter 1:13-16.  Students learned that the LORD is holy in all he says and does.  They were challenged by Jeff to leave the wadding pool get into the breakers.  It's almost time for late nite to start with loud and crazy games and videos then off to bed.  It has stormed here for the past couple hours but that hasn't slowed our students down one bit!  More tomorrow...
