Praise the Lord for an amazing leadership retreat weekend for our Student Council and Chapel Ministry Team students, where they were challenged by what and who they allow themselves to be influenced by and the impact that has on how they influence others. Have you taken stock lately on who and what you allow to be an influencer in your life? Take a moment with one of these leadership students and they would love to talk with you about it!
