"Steve's Travels".
The Tagalog sounds so much more interesting. :)
A couple weeks ago, Steve traveled about 12 hours north to attend a tribal believers' conference as well as tribal church leadership meetings. He was very encouraged by the time he spent with these dear brothers and sisters, and we are so excited by the ways that God is at work in their midst.
After the conference, Steve and several of the leaders headed off into the mountains for a leadership retreat.
They hiked several hours (5?) through some gorgeous terrain.
After a couple hours, they started following the river bed up into the mountains.
That waterfall waaaay up there is their destination.
Quite the venue for a retreat, yes?
They camped out by the waterfall overnight, then this was breakfast the next day. Little minnows, frogs, and eels. Yum!
And, of course, don't forget the rice!
The next day they lowered themselves down into the waterfall basin. Thankfully, Steve had brought some ropes to make this a little safer. Don't want to lose any leaders at the retreat!
Absolutely gorgeous!
They spear fished for eels in the pool under the falls.
Doesn't get much nicer than this for a retreat venue!
The bottom pic is actually waterfalls; the pool in the above pics is located between the two falls!
The men had a wonderful time enjoying the beauty of God's creation, connecting with one another, and discussing future direction and vision for their tribal church.
