Beach Re"Tweet"



Beach Retreat began on Sunday for our High School Ministry as they rolled out to Gulf Shores, Alabama with almost 800 people from the West Campus. Junior High will be headed to South Padre Island, Texas this Sunday for our week in the sun.

We've been keeping up with everything that's going on at Beach Retreat on the Beach Retreat Blog, through Email Updates, and on Twitter...and you can too! Just click the links to read the blog, sign up for email updates, send notes from home, and read real-time updates from the staff and volunteers. This will continue next week for Junior High as well-so be sure to send me a note from home!

Obviously you know what a blog is if your reading this and you probably know how to work email, but if you don't know what Twitter is...it's a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read each others' updates, known as "Tweets" (Hence, the title). You can check out my "tweets" by reading the "Play-by-Play" over on the right column of my blog or clicking on the link.

Beach Retreat is one of the biggest highlights of our year...and we're excited that more people get to be a part of it this year simply by sitting in front their computer...technology is a great thing!
