Big or small, we all experience change. We often feel lost in the midst of it. Whatever your age or stage of life, let’s come together to discover hope, help and God’s power to move forward in the face of constant life change.
Come get away for a weekend in your own backyard….Mission Bay! The Bahia Resort Hotel will be our beautiful destination for fun, relaxation, laughter, worship, great teaching, time with God and others, plus much more! You can check out the resort at www.bahiahotel.com.
Our Speakers
Dr. Gail Bones, a former English teacher and professor of education, has been engaging audiences as a speaker, Bible teacher, songwriter and worship leader for more than thirty years. Gail and her husband Jeff live in San Diego, where happiness means always having one or more of the following in her hands: a dog leash, a sailboat tiller, bicycle handlebars, a kayak paddle, an acoustic guitar, a big fat book, or a hazelnut coffee.
Sarah Merk-Benitez has a heart and passion to connect young adults to the grand vision that God has for their lives. If she could, she would have the freedom to spend hours talking with every person about their life, hopes and dreams. Her hope for young people is that they find healing from past hurts, but then move outside of the walls of the church and find a life filled with mission. Outside of JCC, Sarah spends time with her husband Daniel at one of the local restaurants or coffee shops near their home in the Hillcrest area.
