This spring, the Hope for Men and Women program went on a field trip to visit Yosemite National Park. Most of the participants had never seen Yosemite with its beautiful mountains and waterfalls. We shared a time of devotion at Glacier Point overlooking God’s incredible creation. We hiked to waterfalls and enjoyed a picnic in the park. The following are responses from our men and women.
“Sitting in silence, hearing the roaring and rushing winds of the waterfalls and mountains”
“God’s presence evident in everything we saw, heard and touched.”
“Grateful that God had us in mind when He created this beautiful earth, what a gift.”
