Different groups hiked to different spots on Saturday.

Because of the damp weather the hiking was a little challenging at times.

The sights and sounds of God’s creation all around you made it worthwhile though.

There was also time for relaxing and the sun did make an occasional appearance.

Tether ball and challenges also proved to be popular.

The food was plentiful and what wasn’t eaten was donated to the North Reading Food Pantry when we returned.

Everyone gathered on Saturday evening at Chapel Rock for a very moving vesper service.

After that it was back to the cabins for a campfire.

The singing was enthusiastic and lasted well into the night.

Of course you can’t have a camping retreat without S’MORES.

A big thank you to Janet Nicosia who spearheaded the drive to do a camping retreat. Yvonne Sorenson, John Intorcio and Andy Graham were also instrumental in making the retreat a reality.  They were assisted by the Ambassadors Ministry and it was truly a blessing to see so many people of different ages come together to make the retreat a tremendous success!
