First Week at Arrow Leadership

I flew out to Vancouver, BC and met my 21 other class members at the airport and from there we took a water taxi to the beautiful Keats Island where we stayed at Barnabas camp. It was truly a magnificent view! Some of the biggest trees I've ever seen. Keats Island is a West Coast Rainforest. Notice how the roots of this tree are like above the ground??

I was so impacted by the week of teachings, mentoring and time to reflect. The leaders and staff at Arrow are men and women with integrity, passion and truth. I could not be more privileged to learn under such a strong team of leaders.

I loved hanging out with pastors, youth pastors, Salvation Army officers, para-church leaders etc that were all within 15 years of my age. I don't think I've had that much fun in a long time.



What am I walking away with? So much! But one big thing that has been shifting in me is to not live and lead from fear. The Lord is beginning to instill a new confidence in me of learning to trust His strength.

My next Arrow week residential is in November. Until then I have assignments, mentors and group clusters that I'll be doing/meeting with. Thank you for praying - I am so blessed!
