In repentance and rest is your salvation; in quietness and trust is your strength... Isaiah 30:15
"Why YD Adventures?
My life gets so loud that I forget how to be quiet. The majority of life is lived out in the 'valley', but we often need the height of the 'mountaintop' for clarity. For me this mountaintop is a place of retreat where I can strip away all distractions, and back away from meaningless activity enough to see what I'm really living for. It is the place where I discover the truth about myself and others in the light of our Creator. I am serving with YD Adventures because I believe God uses the purposeful tool of adventure ministry to provide others the opportunity for a 'mountaintop' viewpoint on their life; to bring them out into a quiet space away from their daily loudness and give them a chance to hear what their Creator is saying to them: "behold I make all things new... I have a future and a hope for you... and I love you more than you can ever know".
