Mountain View Retreat
Half way through the first term, AIM slips out of Lubbock up to the mountains of New Mexico for a brief, spiritually-focused retreat. Situated just outside of Ruidoso, New Mexico, the 16 acre camp offers plenty of room for the highly-stressed AIMers to chill out, sit around camp fires and spend some good time reflecting on God's goodness. Our special guest speaker was Mike Tanaro, father of two ex-Aimers, who spoke on the Matthew 5-7; the sermon on the mount. A huge thank you to the Sunset Church of Christ in Carlsbad, New Mexico for making it possible for AIM to enjoy such a great facility.

Looks like a super bunch... Glad you posted a pic, Pat! It was fun searching the faces - not necessarily looking for people I know (even though I saw a few!) but just imagining the ways God will shape their hearts over the course of their lives. No doubt about it... lives on mission fields will be changed. Yet I get the biggest thrill imagining the deep work God will do in them after AIM. Oh, the things it takes to get there... plenty of heartache to balance out the happy days. But not a thing is wasted.

Praying for all of you today...
