From Attending to Serving at Family Retreat

Sarah Meets with Family Retreat Dads to Ask Their Prayer RequestsSarah came to Family Retreat for the first time when she was only 12. At that time, she and her mother Kathy felt broken and discouraged. Today, with the support and encouragement they’ve received at Family Retreat, Sarah and Kathy are now joyfully pouring God’s love out on others, giving freely what they had been given. “Seeing Sarah’s giftedness in prayer, encouragement and mercy, we asked Sarah to be our prayer ambassador at Family Retreat,” explains Retreat Director Cheryl. “She was so excited to give back what she received so many years ago!” Every day at Family Retreat, Sarah prays with the prayer team. During the day, she finds a way to meet just about everyone – asking how they are and how she can pray for them. “I love to pray for people,” says Sarah with her infectious smile. “Knowing God is the best thing possible. He’s just incredible!” Sarah is growing leaps and bounds as she uses the gifts God has given her to bless everyone around her. Because of the courage and strength God has given her at Family Retreat, she has found her God-given purpose. As we gear up for more Family Retreats next week, please follow Sarah’s lead and join us in praying for each of the families attending – that lives will be changed and families will be strengthened!
