Long Beach Mini Retreat

What a wonderful 24 hours I had from Friday late afternoon until Sunday just after dinner.   Robin had been wanting to have a retreat at the beach for a little while now and was seeking and praying as to how to accomplish that.   Thanks to people from church that know people who own homes at Long Beach Island, we were able to have a mini retreat with around 15 women from the Friday morning bible study and various others from church.
It was a time of reflection and refreshing that was very much needed and appreciated. 

Bay house.  One of two houses we ladies had.  I stayed here.  Great to be on the water.

Hooting and clapping during share time.

Susan had a birthday.  Rebecca made the cake.

Enjoying quiet time at the beach.  Just 3 blocks from the bay. 

The birds were fascinating to me. 

Trying to go for the artist edge here.

I was elated that my feet were in the sand!
