Girls Week

After home stay we headed off to Calgary to spend a week with the girls from all three sites. The week was filled with adventure and fun and awesome, thought provoking instruction from Sharon Peters, our speaker.

Cheesecake was had by all!

One of the highlights of girls' week was going out for dinner. We chose the Cheesecake cafe and it was VERY yummy!

The only Boy Allowed

Elliot Peters (the son of our speaker Sharon Peters) was the only boy allowed during girls week and he certainly got more then his fair share of attention!

Johnson's Canyon Hike!

By: Kristen

During Girls week we went on a beautiful hike in Johnson’s canyon. At one point on our hike we had the opportunity to go into a cave and see a close up view of the falls. Inside the cave, it was slippery, loud and quite scary. But once we emerged on the other side the beauty was breathtaking. The water was crystal clear and gushed into an icy blue pool. Looking down into this pool of water a couple of us noticed that there were icicles forming on the rocks below. It was neat to think about how the snow at the top of the mountain had melted, came down, and froze to form ice. It gave me the picture of God’s love for us. We feel it is so high about us yet it reaches the small crevices below.
