The first ever Chatham Hall youth retreat was held at
Emmanuel Episcopal Church the weekend of Feb. 7th. For two nights, Youth
Missioner Megan Dern, led the girls in prayer stations and practices,
small group discussions, a service project and a town scavenger hunt.
The scavenger hunt took the girls around town, to businesses and other
important places in the town. The girls then wrote prayers for each
place they went and these prayers were offered during a noon day worship
service at a local gathering spot in town.
In their evaluation the girls mentioned the importance of
learning about different ways to pray, making an Anglican Rosary and the
time for spiritual reflection.
