We were blessed to be able to visit friends in Hawaii last winter, and happened to be on island with some of the guys that went through the Liberty youth group. I used to lead summer and winter retreats called “Manathons” each year. We would camp in snow caves or canoe through the Boundary Waters. Whatever we did, we ate lots of strange things and had a great time. These four guys all participated in them. Upon arriving in Hawaii, it was their turn to plan the Manathon!

It was an amazing opportunity to be with these friends and I will never forget swimming with the sea turtles.
