The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

The Good: Our Shepherds Spring Retreat was fantastic.  A big thank you to all of our staff and volunteers for making the trip to Arrowhead from Shippensburg, Cedarville, Liberty, and Lemoyne, LBC and a handful of places in between.

The Bad: We had great weather for the retreat, allowing us to enjoy hayrides and pedal carts.  It felt like summer.  Everyone wished the weekend wouldn't end.  It's too bad it's not June 1st.

The Ugly: Poor lighting, plenty of shadows, eyes closed, that tilt-a-whirl feeling and little fuzziness.  This photo is terrible but our LBC class is beautiful.  Thanks for all your hard work and dedication this past weekend as our James Project group.  What a blessing!

Arrowhead Bible College

Self Portraits, Pictionary and Pizza... just some of the key components of Leadership Dynamics in Camping Ministry.

This weekend was the first of three for the Leadership course I teach as an adjunct faculty member at Lancaster Bible College.  Our weekend was an intensive look at leadership personalities, structure,  healthiness, critical components and practical knowledge all geared towards success in life after college.

Next up, the class will be back at Arrowhead for more class time and to serve as our James Project group for the Shepherds Camp spring retreat.

Then it's down to Lancaster for the third weekend to finalize projects, make presentations and change the world!

Where did Spring go?

It was 31 degrees this morning at Arrowhead.  Summer camp is just a month away... and it makes me think, "Where did Spring go?"

We have been busy working on projects and preparing camp for another big summer season.  But, before we get ahead of ourselves, check out some pictures for our Shepherds Spring Retreat.

What Kind of Leader Are You?

This past weekend was the launch of Leadership Dynamics in Camping Ministry, a 3-credit undergraduate LBC course we now offer here at Arrowhead.

Here's a photo from the lighter side of the course.  Can you tell which one is the Polar Turtle?

Actually, it was a pretty intense weekend.  But, the uniqueness of the camp setting and various teaching formats made for a fantastic learning environment.  For me, it was a great blessing - to live and learn in community with students preparing for life and ministry.

We have two more weekends - one here at Arrowhead in conjunction with our Shepherds Camp Spring Retreat and the other on campus at LBC.  I am also looking forward to our Discipleship course which will be offered over the summer.
