Its one of those days when we are able to get away for a whole day to somewhere out of the hustle of life.

Over the last few years I have scheduled these days in, but have found myself cancelling them as I have looked at all that needs doing. It always seems less urgent to spend time with God than time solving problems!

This year I asked Danelle to join me on these – hearing God together seems to make a bit of sense – and we have also approached 3 other couples who we would consider close friends to come with us.

We are heading up to the hills today from 9.00-9.00 to pray, eat, laugh, listen and hopefully meet with God and each other in a fairly focused way.
