End of Summer Bash, by Rebecca Rundlett

This weekend the LBC Singles are hosting our second annual ‘End-of-Summer Bash’ at Platte River State Park. Although at this point I feel like I am drowning in the details of preparation, I am looking forward to this year’s Bash with eager anticipation! Last summer, at the first annual Platte River Park ‘Bash’, we were blessed with a weekend of fun, comraderie, fellowship. Underline fellowship. Friday night we sang praise music and chatted–many of us connected with friends that we had not seen for quite some time; and made new friends. Saturday we spent the day in activities:hiking, biking, swimming, badminton, ‘yellowball’, fellowshipping, reading, napping etc. The Park proved to be an ideal setting to just be together and to enjoy God’s wonderful creation, and our beautiful state. Sunday we had casual breakfast and headed back to civilization after some time of fellowship. This year we have a full weekend planned with some fellowship time, worship and praise time, messages to reflect upon by Bob Milliken(Saturday) and Kurt Sandquist(Sunday), as well as some semi-formal star-gazing (weather-permitting). Saturday there will be lot’s of time to roam the park, be active, be lazy, hang out, eat and dance, if you’re so inclined. We do have a place to gather in case of rain, so don’t let a few clouds hold you back!! The main thing I remember, on reflection, is the AWESOME time, getting away, and spending time together with old friends and new friends–feeling the love of God and truly the fellowship of the Spirit as we focused on Him, His wonderful creation, and on spending time with our brothers and sisters in Christ. This is our hope and prayer for this year’s ‘Bash’, as well–that we would be ‘blessed beyond belief’ in our time together this weekend!! Looking forward to seeing you ALL at Platte River Park this weekend–come for part or all of the weekend!! Rebecca
