Stillness
Retreat Season
In His Presence
> By Kay Kastner retreat manager
“The mind that comes to rest is tended
In ways that it cannot intend:
Is borne, preserved and comprehended
By what it cannot comprehend.”
These words from Wendell Berry describe what happens when we are in His
presence. As summer comes to a close at Camp Tejas the excitement of the transformation
into Retreat Season is in the air. Just as our LORD transforms the vibrant colors of the
different seasons – He can transform our lives through the stillness of our lives. God
has provided a beautiful place here at Camp Tejas to come and experience this stillness
and rest away from the distractions of life. Whether you come to seek solitude through
prayer and meditation, gather in fellowship for spiritual growth, or simply come to make
memories, you will leave refreshed with a renewed focus on your LORD and Savior Jesus
Christ. >>
