Summer Expectations

**Psalm 36:5, “Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.”**

It’s been a busy and blessed month on the Mountain and summer has just begun!

As summer continues, we’re grateful for the many guests the Lord has brought our way. Earlier this month, our Women’s Conference with Helen Trowbridge was a wonderful blessing, with nearly every seat filled as women gathered to worship, be encouraged, and draw closer to the Lord. Some powerful truths shared throughout the weekend included: • Worry and anxiety come from the flesh. Instead of praying worried prayers, pray with expectation for testimonies. Our God has already won the victory! • Don’t focus on the problem—pray for the solution. Praise Him and remember His faithfulness. • Facts may change, but God’s truth never changes. His truth brings peace, hope, and joy. • Put God’s Word on your situation instead of placing worry on it. • Your mess can become your message, and your test can become your testimony. You can go back and watch the service on our YouTube channel, Blue Mountain Christian Retreat, or call our office to place your order for a hard copy recording.

The work is blessed when there are many hands!

We’d like to share, thanks to your faithful support, our playground has received new mulch and landscaping. We’re thankful that we can continue caring for these grounds so future generations can experience rest, renewal, and joy. Thank you for partnering with us in what God is doing here!
We are still hiring for some seasonal staff positions! We are looking for passionate individuals to join us in roles such as Housekeeping Team Members, Dining Hall, Cooks and Food Prep. Maybe you’ve been sensing that gentle stirring in your heart — a reminder that you are called for a purpose.
