I made it to Maine and it's been non-stop since I got here. This week we've been doing a lot of training in process learning and in the outdoor activities that we will be using in our process learning programs. The Lord has been showing me a ton about growth...both my own personal growth and helping a group grow together. We've specifically focused on the concepts found in Henry Cloud's book "Changes that Heal" (I highly, highly recomend it)...those concepts being Bonding, Good/Bad Split, Adulthood, and Boundries. I'll probably write more about what God's been showing me in the days to come as I process more. Here are some pictures of the time we spent rock climbing. We got to climb at this place called "Otter Cliff" and it was beautiful. You were actually lowered down onto a shelf that was 10ft from the ocean then you climbed up. It was crazy climbing while the surf pounded the rocks below you.

I haven't figured out how to do captions but below are description of the pictures (top to bottom left to right)
