Sponsored by Greenville Chinese Christian Fellowship (GCCF), ECU Ark Fellowship had a spiritual retreat at CLRC’s Lake Gaston October 31- November 1. A total of 25 ECU students and scholars, along with co-workers from GCCF attended this retreat. This was the first time GCCF visiting CLRC’s Lake Gaston facility.
That first day Pastor Chaoyang shared a message of “Body-Mind-Spirit, IQ-EQ-SQ”. While many of us might have high IQ, we may need to work on our EQ. But the most important one is the SQ, spiritual quotient. With God’s guidance and Jesus’ love, integrity, kindness, peace, wisdom, we are set to be successful and joyful in this world. After lunch, we enjoyed colorful fall leaves while riding the boat in Lake Gaston. The food was delicious and making dumplings together for dinner was one of the best moments during the retreat to have fellowship together. During the evening, we shared our testimonies, Christian lives, and discussed many questions regarding our faith. Sunday morning we had our regular worship service. Pastor Chaoyang gave a message titled “Purpose of Life”. On the way home, we had opportunity to visit a vineyard. Everyone had a relaxed weekend and was lifted spiritually.
