Tim and Andra Petersen

Hi Friends!
The Month of March has been crazy busy… I suppose you could say “March Madness” means more for us than just basketball!!!
I (Andra) and 2 other ladies from our church, drove up to a beautiful bed and breakfast up in Ashland, Wisconsin.  We took the whole day and stamped and made cards and just had a wonderful time.

We had a Progressive Dinner at church this month, and we hosted the Salad at our house!  49 people came and it was a great time of fellowship. 

Tim and several other staff attended a CCCA conference at Lake Geneva Youth Camp down in the southern part of the state.  It is always an encouragement to spend time with others who are serving the Lord in camping ministries in Wisconsin. 
We also just got home from our annual Missionary Staff retreat up at Fort Wilderness, near Rhinelander, Wisconsin.  Fort Wilderness is a wonderful camp and we were spoiled by their staff this past week, as we retreated, and had meetings, and gathered ideas for the upcoming year.  Tim and I were excited to be there, as this was our first official year on staff at camp.  We shared our ‘story’ of how God brought us to CFS.  What a fun time!!!  We look forward to what God has planned in the years to come at CFS.

When we left Fort Wilderness, Tim and I decided to take a trip north up to Watersmeet, Michigan.  Tim spent 2 years there at the Northwoods Conference Center when he was in the ALERT program.  This is where he learned all his construction and carpenter skills!!!  We were able to see his old dorm room, and enjoyed taking in the marvelous scenic views that surrounded the property.
