Every January the staff at UYI sneak away to refresh and relax together. In years past, these annual staff retreats have taken us to Vero Beach or the Orlando area, but we decided to stick close to home this year and take a one-day trip to Peanut Island in Riviera Beach.
The Good News Fishing Ministry brought us to and from the island -- and grilled lunch for us, too! Our fearless leader, Bill Hobbs, led us in a morning devotional based on John 5:7, which was a great reminder that God is always at work in the world and in us. We slipped away for some individual quiet time before regrouping for some animated team-building games led by Ms. Susan from Innovative Leisure.
If you've ever wondered what we do when we're not up to our elbows in office work or ministry, now you can see for yourself... [smile]
