Champagne for breakfast?
in inTouch Camps
Champagne for breakfast! Well, not quite (we are YWAMers after all!). But every morning at the inTouch camp during August 2008 at YWAM Champagne (in the small village of Le Gault la Forêt) began with a sparkle. Our hearts soared to the Lord in awe inspiring worship, far more heady and satisfying than even the finest wines of the Champagne region in which we were staying. Vintage speakers, Jeff and Romkje Fountain, leaders of YWAM Europe, filled us with hope, joy and expectancy as they shared the big picture of God’s vision for His world.
Later in the day as we wandered among medieval towns or along winding vine filled roads, many of us shared how God was working in our lives. It was a time of rich and deep fellowship; a time of hearing from God with an incredible sense of togetherness.
inTouch camps bring together former YWAMers, those currently serving in YWAM, their supporters, families and sending churches- in fact anyone who has YWAM blood in their veins! It’s an exciting multi-generational mix with families, singles, teens, seniors – and no one feels left out.
The warm summer afternoons were spent relaxing and in the evenings Roy and Shirley Jones, leaders of inTouch Europe, provided with others on the team a cornucopia of interesting events, from a missions night to a wonderfully creative worship experience, from line dancing to a testimony evening not forgetting a relaxing barbecue evening in the spacious grounds of YWAM Champagne.
