It's never happened to me before, postponing a winter retreat due to winter weather. But as they say, there's a first time for everything.

The weather-man was calling for an ice storm, followed by a snow storm, with the possibility of power outages, down trees and limbs, closed roads, and a real mess. It happened. As predicted, it happened. The down trees and limbs, closed roads, power outages; it was a real mess.

And the timing couldn't have been worse, just before we were to leave for our retreat. It was a tough decision, one I never like to make, but with conditions as they were, it was the right call to make. So postponed our winter retreat.

Take a few minutes to watch today's episode of The Youth Worker Daily, and see why and how we went about postponing our winter retreat!
