The Southern New England Conference Adventist Youth Ministries Department held a spiritual retreat at Camp Winnekeag September 13-15 for members of the Medical Cadet Corps (MCC). Under the theme “It’s Possible,” more than 50 MCCs participated in a weekend of spiritual revitalization, revival, and discovery.
David McKenzie, Atlantic Union Conference Adventist Youth Ministries director, kicked off the weekend on Friday night with a story about Moses and Joshua working together to defeat the Amalekites at Rephidim (Exodus 17:8-13). The message emphasized how faith, work, and prayer are combined to defeat the enemy.
Danny Mendoza, a member of the Leominster Spanish church in Leominster, Massachusetts, provided the spiritual food for the remainder of the weekend and reminded those attending that with God, everything is possible.
Linda Colón, a member from the Framingham Centre church in Framingham, Massachusetts, led out in group and team-building activities, emphasizing support, respect, and tolerance.
To close the Sabbath, attendees consecrated themselves to the Lord and His service by observing the Ordinance of Humility and participating in a special Communion service. Saturday evening included some time for fun, with a social, complete with games, volleyball, and basketball. Mendoza gave a final spiritual charge to the MCCs before they left on Sunday.
