BP Students had a great time at Camp Berea! We brought 36 students and leaders with us and we had a blast! Personally, this is one of my favorite trips that I have been on at Berea. Berea handles all of the programming for the weekend, which allows leaders to pour into the students and grow in relationships together without the burden of having to lead the retreat.

I think one of the best moments for me was seeing our students link up during worship and seeing them sway back and forth as they worshiped God. As a result of the weekend, a couple of students expressed their desire to follow Jesus more closely through baptism and other steps of surrender and obedience. I feel so incredibly blessed to have had the opportunity to bring our leaders and students on this trip and cannot wait to see how God uses this winter retreat as a catalyst for the student ministry.

Continue to pray for our students and our leaders, and we are looking to forward sharing more students stories in the future. For now, click through the photo album below (or check it out on Google Photos) and get a glimpse into the amazing weekend we shared together!
