Camping with Small Group

We recently spent a weekend camping with our small group. We have been meeting with most of these young couples for the past year on Wednesday nights. We started studying "The Purpose Driven Life" last fall and now we are working on the "Doing Life Together" series. We are so thankful for our small group and the wonderful friendships that we have made!

Tim and Sarah Johnson (Tim is our new youth pastor at the church. They just moved here a month ago after Tim graudated from Acadia last spring. It was great to get to know them that weekend!)



When it started clouding over in the afternoon, the guys got working on setting up a tarp that would cover the campfire and all of us sitting around it. They did a good job...once it all got figured out! :0)



Mission accomplished!
It did end up raining later that evening and we were able to sit around the campfire talking...and stayed completely dry!


The happy campers

Hey Steph,

Matt Walsh here. Nice blog! Just wanted to say hello. Tim Johnson and I went to Acadia together; please say hi to him for me. Blessings to you and Matt.

PS-Can you answer a bit of trivia that has been driving Dee, Christine, and me crazy? Usually my memory is very detailed, but I cannot remember the last name of a counselor who worked at camp in 1995. Her name was Lori (NOT Laurie) and she was a friend of your sister, Jennifer. Dee and Christine cannot remember her last name either. So if you feel like making our day, share the wealth :-)

Good times were had by all. Aaron and I had such a great time that weekend. We will have to do it again:)
