Intervarsity Fall Retreat - Crazy Love

This weekend I was on the Intervarsity Fall Retreat. I had an awesome time! Sadly I kind of wish I was still there because I got a lot out of the retreat and I had a good time getting to know some of the other members of BSU's Intervarsity chapter. Below is a photo of me climbing the rockwall at the camp the retreat was held at. We had free time on Saturday afternoon for kyaking and rock climbing and other such activities.


My other photos from the weekend are available to be viewed in my album on Facebook:

The Things People Will Pay Money For

Ok..... I don't even know how to react to this. But I heard about the Intervarsty Christian Fellowship fundraiser to get money for Fall Retreat, which is coming up next weekend. Apparently they (well.... we since I am a member) are going door to door and people are paying money for them (us) to crack eggs over their (our) heads. For $3.00 one IVCF member cracks the egg over another's head. For $5.00 the person paying can crack the egg over the IVCF member's head. Apparently the staff member who brought this up was working elsewhere last year and this fundraiser earned that Intervarsity group over $2,000.00. O-O

Why do people pay money for something like this?

Then again, I'll be happy if we can get that much. I want to go on Fall Retreat and don't know if I can really pay the $50.00 price to go. Would be nice if I could be covered by funds we earn.
