Marking the end of the school year at Glenhaven was our annual field day, and a full day of events it certainly was. New Life Church's "G-Life" youth group joined in on the fun, though I'm not quite sure they knew what they were in for!After a short devotion (centered around the day's memory verse James 3 :17) the kids embarked on an extensive obstacle course involving nothing more important than a huge slip-n-slide.
Following lunch, some friendly "tugging" ended everyone up on the wrong side of muddy!
Everyone cleaned up in the creek just in time for our "staff -vs- kids" softball game. Our fearless director Dwayne pitched for the staff, while ranch youth pastor Jamie Coggins lobbed for the kids. Many swings and laughs later, the staff emerged victorious.
The day finished off with a heart warming chapel where Glenhaven said goodbye to a graduated resident, as well as two very valued staff members. Amber from G-life encouraged us all with a message of God's grace and power, which posed the searching question, "Are you standing in the way of receiving it?"
