We praise God for a great retreat over the weekend at Masanetta Springs. It was a beautiful opportunity to slow down, enjoy each other’s company, and practice the presence of God together. On Sunday morning, Pastor Casey led a worship service for the retreat participants at Masanetta Springs, and Pastor Rachel led worship at New Monmouth Presbyterian Church. Both pastors preached from Luke 15.
