Wow! We had an incredible time at the first-ever Elevation! Worship Leaders Retreat. Check out these pics and think about coming to the next Elevation retreat June 16-20, 2008. Past participants, if you have some good pics, send them to me and I'll post them here.
Our conference room looks right out on Lake Tahoe with several prayer stations set up for worship and seminar tables for small group discussion during sessions.
Participants who played with visual worship centers mid-week put some amazing elements together!
Our opening worship provided time to reflect on what we'd like to discover "on the mountaintop" and in the depths of renewing waters.
I was so honored and pleased to work with my friend and pianist extraordinaire Lee Lallance!
Director of Administration Sherrie Decker made sure everything went so smoothly. Thanks, Sherrie!
Elevation '07 participants loved the spiritual renewal time to read, reflect, write or plan worship in a beautiful setting.
The evaluations of the retreat setting were "wonderful, "excellent," inspirational," "great views" with close proximity of guest rooms, dining hall and conference room.
Elevation '07 participants take some time to breathe in the mountain air before our closing worship and heading for home.
What can I say? I love living here in Tahoe and it was thrilling to share it with 50 new friends. God's incredible creativity is on display year-round here. Whether you join us for Elevation next June or later in January '09, you will find breathtaking sights, sounds and smells.
The week-long pilgrimage brought us closer as a group - new friends were made and worship teams who came found new life and inspiration together.
