Over the weekend of August 5-7, 145 adults and children people from churches throughout our conference gathered at Rocky Mountain Mennonite Camp to worship and relax in the beautiful setting of camp. Friday night opened with a concert by Tim and Gretchen May and Steve Smith. Fireweed gave a concert Saturday night in the chapel.

Worship Saturday and Sunday mornings was in a tent in the ballfield. Worshipers could enter the tent with bare feet and walk to symbolize the theme of “Listening on Holy Ground.”

Delegates gathered in the Lodge on Saturday afternoon to hear updates from around the confere

nce and to consider the 2017 budget.

Ten workshops were offered by many with passion for topics ranging from health care justice in Colorado to the struggle for a just peace in Israel/Palestine to The Bible and Anabaptist Faith to regionalizing relationships in a commuter era to the pending famine in northern Nigeria.

Recreational activities included hikes, walks, yoga, tie dying, watercolor painting, rock climbing, rappelling and outdoor games.
