Consume Responsibly

I’m on a church retreat with the high school youth group I volunteer with as a leader, we’re staying at a camp in the middle of Minnesota, we call the retreat Snow Camp and our theme this year is “consume responsibly”. It’s based on a candy land theme, where we’re talking about how we can be responsible Christians.

Friday night a student spoke about responsibility in relationships and how we as Christian’s need to build each other up in our relationships. On Saturday another spoke, about our responsibility to tell the truth, he spoke about good examples, and how truth affects our lives.

For Snow Camp we have teams every year and my team is the Lords and Ladies of the Licorice. We play games like scooter chariot races, tug-of-war on the ice, and usually funny team games before our chapel sessions. It’s a chance for the students to get excited about the theme, the weekend, and being with each other.

Responsibility is a big deal, whether your Christian or not, our challenge this weekend has been to think about how we can take on responsibility and improve our lives, as well as the lives of others.

Lord willing every student had a good experience, learned a lot, and had fun.
