This weekend, Feb. 8-10, I went to a church retreat. The theme of the retreat was Jesus 360: Youth Spiritual Retreat. It descibed that Jesus is in every direction and that he is around you all of the time.
Before the trip my little brother was sick. He was suppose to go to the trip with me because his school, York Seventh-day Adventist, invited me to come. I was so nervous to go by myself because I didn't know anyone at the school.
It took about five hours to get to the Laurel Lake Camp. I was introduced to many people. It make made more more comfortable, but I still missed my brother.
I felt so relieve with every worship because the words that the students of Blue Mountain Academy was telling us related to my life. The Praise Team were amazing. Their music ensemble with the bass guitar, piano and other instruments emphasized their praise for God.
Other entertainments were Christian comedians, Isaac IMPROV. and Blue Mountian Academy's Aerial Aires.
Aerial Aires is a co-ed gymnastics team at the academy. Their performance was sharp and had hip-hop flavor into it.
In overall, after I can home I've realized what God has given me.
All I have to do is be paitent and accept any gift or consequence he gives me.

Theme Song
By: David Crowder Band
I am full of earth, You are heaven's worth
I am stained with dirt, prone to depravity
And You are everything that is bright and clean
The antonym of me, You are divinity
What a certain sign of grace is this
From a broken earth flowers come up
Pushing through the dirt
You are holy, holy, holy
All heaven cries holy, holy God
You are holy, holy, holy
I wanna be holy like You are
You are everything that is bright and clean
And You're covering me with Your majesty
And the truest sign of grace was this
From wounded hands redemption fell down
Liberating man
But the harder I try, the more clearly can I
Feel the depth of our fall and the weight of it all
And so this might could be the most impossible thing
Your grandness in me, making me clean
Holy, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
You are holy, holy, holy
All heaven cries holy, holy God
You are holy, holy, holy
I wanna be holy, holy God
So here I am, all of me, finally everything
Holy, holy, holy
I am wholly, wholly, wholly
I am wholly, wholly, wholly Yours
I am wholly Yours
And I am full of earth and dirt and You
Here I am
Everything
I like this Shantia...This is Kesley.
