Soul Sistas Camp 2008
About 35 young and young-ish women from the Canberra and region assemblies recently enjoyed a weekend of fun and fellowship together at the annual 'Soul Sistas' camp in Nowra.
The theme of the camp this year was 'Blessed are the Peacemakers' and we had a great time sharing discussion over the Word of God about various aspects of this topic: Such as the importance of loving yourself and being at peace with yourself so you can be a peace with others; forgiveness and sharing the gospel of peace with others.
Among the many highlights of the weekend was the opportunity to pray for one another and share simple fellowship with like-minded sisters in Christ. We also had a lot of fun - a car rally took us on a scenic tour of the region - with many memorable moments. Our teams had to stop at a certain house (belonging to Tamsyn's in-laws) and then ordered to move 50 bricks and pull up a bucket of weeds! The little interlude at the TREAT factory was a definite highlight! The rally finished at the Tea House looking out over the Shoalhaven region.
The surprise event on Saturday night had us all learning a new skill. we also had some star students... just ask someone who went!!
The weekend culminated in our visit to the Nowra fellowship for the Sunday meeting and a lovely fellowship lunch.
Thank you to EVERYONE who worked so hard to organise this weekend - it was a blessing to all who went and we can't wait till next year!!
