summit is my favourite time of the year. i kid you not. there's just something about autumn beauty, great speakers, good fellowship, cheering, faith barriers, and ice cold cabins.
i've been looking forward to summit ever since project because there were a few people that were telling me that they'd "bring it", and i've been eagerly waiting to show them guelph's spirit. we didn't disappoint. i was so proud of guelph friday night when we had our cheer-down with mac.
if you like guelph...
if you like guelph,
clap your hands and SOCK it to mcmaster
stomp your feet and SOCK it to mcmaster
turn around and SOCK it to mcmaster
wind your toy and SOCK it to mcmaster
of course it was great to see the projectiles as well. ;P
but more importantly Summit's a milestone marker of God's faithfulness in my life.
two years ago i went only to see my friends from OEX. i had no idea what summit was about.
a year ago one of my girls was on the bus with me, but i barely remembered her name and her face. duhn still teases me about it to this day.
this year three of my girls were on the bus with me, leading the cheers with me, all of us decked out in red and yellow, with sparkling sequined togas. it was bittersweet to know that i'll be leaving them and the movement at guelph in a few months, but i was also proud and confident that there will be solid leaders left behind. praise God for what He's doing.
the talks given by alex philip were excellent. i loved how he just unpacked those verses like a suitcase especially for the third talk. when he first read ezekiel 1:1-3, i had expected him to continue reading because i couldn't see anything of significance in those three verses. for a full summary go to kirsten's blog. i wish i could listen to them again so i could mull on it.
it was the best summit i've had. everything just came together. i felt really blessed and privileged to be there this weekend. it was such a gift. i'm thankful for every little thing that was part of the weekend...even the ice cold cabins.
