Brockville Conference

8
This past weekend a bunch of your YP group went up to the Brockville Conference. Though I've met some of their young people before this was the first time I actually went there. We had an amazing weekend.
Our speaker was Rev. Jeremy Veldman, and the theme was 'Running the Race'. We had three amazing seminars and I really enjoyed them all.

Saturday aft. after the seminars we went for a hike up Blue Mountian (not the one in Collingwood). Though it was quite a hike and there were a million trillion horsefly's and twice the many mosquitos it was really pretty and and a ton of fun.


Unfortunately my camera is a piece of junk and quickly becoming worse so the pics aren't the greatest quality but here's a few anyway.Standing around before the hike waiting for everyone to come.
