Dwell Fall Retreat to the Keys

This week we took our fall retreat to the fabulous Florida Keys. The Keys are a gift from God to us in South Florida, and the thousands of visitors they receive each year. A string of hundreds of islands and several bridges are our little get away. We spent 3 days and 2 nights discussing 2 books (Immigrant Power in Miami and Ministering Cross-Culturally, some self assessment and the Enneagram, sharing meals, 18 hours in silence and prayer, running, drawing, reading and snorkeling. We all returned rested and renewed. Thank you to the Groh family for the use of the peaceful little house. Thank you to Strike Zone Charters for the snorkeling and history lesson. Thanks be to God for the time in expectant prayer. What a way to be in Advent.
