Men's Retreat

Well, good evening. As promised, I shall write about this past weekend.



The Men's Retreat was held at Palomar Christian Conference Center, which sits next to Palomar Mountain State Park. It is about an hour away from San Diego give or take 10-15 minutes.

The title of the retreat this year was "Myths of Manhood."

We watched the movie "The Man who Shot Liberty Valence" on Friday night. Mark Trotter and Greg Ladue talked on Saturday, and then we had a powerful worship and communion on Sunday.

I think the best talk was Greg's on Saturday night, which touched several of the men in the room. It struck to their very core and made them think about what is going on.

All in all, it was a good retreat. I walked away from the Retreat feeling recharged and ready to get out there and make a difference.

Take care!

Shalom!

Physical Health Assessment

Well, I ran my semi-annual physical health assessment this morning. Basically, it is our semi-annual test which we do twice a year seeing if we are physically fit to stay in the navy. I managed to do around 48 push-ups, 68 sit-ups, and run a 1.5 mile in 10:57 minutes. So, my overall score is a "Good, High" which ain't too bad, if you ask me. Although, I need to do better on my sit-ups and push-ups on my next test.

I have been slacking on here. I attended the 2008 Men's Retreat through my church over the weekend, and I need to talk about what happened. But, I am at work right now and I cannot go into too much details right now. So, I will try to write about this past weekend tonight.

I hope everyone has a good week! Take care!
