Saturday morning (better to say a few hours after we arrived) I woke up, still tired, my head felt like stuffed with cotton balls and - what was really bad - I had a sore throat! Usually that is a signal for the beginning of a bad cold or bronchitis. And I had no vitamins/medicine with me to fight that...
So I got up to take a shower and prayed REALLY hard and asked the Lord to help me - reminding him he's the best physician at all. And, even if that is not really surprising, after breakfast I recognized that all of the sore throat was gone! That filled my heart with joy and thankfullness, futhermore that is almost a week ago and I am still fine!
We had a wonderful time of fellowship - I like it so much when we all sing together! It sounds
really great. God also blessed us with wonderful weather, the sun was shining and we could stay outside enjoying spring and the awakening of nature. You can watch pictures here (and a short "bonfire-film" here).Oh yeah, last but not least - I said yes to the call of the Chemnitzers to organise the next retreat (Fall 2007) and I am so happy that Frances said yes, too! We already could fix the next date, it will be
September 14th - 16th 2007.
