A Slice of Heaven

Cause 4 Life interns serving at Family Retreat

For days, the suspense has been building. Our Cause 4 Life interns are eager to experience a “slice of heaven,” a week of fellowship and ministry that they’ll never forget. Three of our teams are serving at Family Retreat this week—the West Coast and Arizona Academies at Bison Ranch in Arizona, and the Bootcamp at Murrieta in California. They’ve driven hours, even days to get there and have finally found out which family they’ll be serving for the week. But while setting up the retreat and preparing the activities, our interns are also developing servant hearts. For two days, they’ve been in non-stop training to increase their disability awareness and learn how to serve people who have various disabilities. And as a final reminder of the purpose of Family Retreat – to serve as Jesus served, the camp’s leadership washed the hands of each intern and prayed for them. Now they are ready… all that’s left is for the families to arrive. But even with all their preparation, relying on God’s strength and love to serve these special families is what makes Family Retreat the slice of heaven that it is.
