7th Grade Retreat at St. Anne's of the Sunset

On Thursday, I led a 7th grade Retreat at St. Anne's of the Sunset with the Youth Council. The theme of the retreat was "Loving Unconditionally" and the theme song was "Unconditionally" by Katy Perry. We taught the students the different types of love and how they all relate to God. There's love between yourself, friends, family, a partner, and God. God's love, "agape", is his unconditional love. I led the ice breakers, "I Love My Neighbor" and "Musical Jukebox". Leading activities for a big group of about 50 students, helps me with my leadership skills. We did teaching on each kind of love, then were broken up into small groups of about 8 students to discuss them. With theses retreats, I've learned how to adapt to many different agendas and students quickly. Every retreat is different. I'm glad I have the opportunity to help grow their faith.
