I wasn’t sure what to expect from Faith Camp, but the experience was amazing and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to be part of the last one.

Here’s what I took away from the week:

• It’s wonderful to be amongst a group of people that expect God to be at work in this world in amazing ways. I think some parts of the church know that God is at work, but here they see God at work.
• The message that I heard most clearly from the week was the need for me to find time and space to be alone with God. I’m planning my first, semi-silent retreat this October.
• No matter how much a church may focus on the work of the Holy Spirit, there’s always a need for a course or a programme to help put building blocks of faith in place.
• Oh, and 3,000+ people singing is pretty amazing (see the video)
