February 15 & 16, 2009 Winter Outing (Sponsored
by the FICC Music Ministry)
The FICC Music Ministry headed by Liza Afable
regularly serves in all of the church’s worship services
and special events throughout the year. At the end of
each year, the FICC music group together with their
families all take time out for a retreat to enjoy God’s
bounty and marvelous creation. This year, men,
women and children involved in the Music Ministry,
bravely trekked the Big Bear Mountains with an
altitude of 7,000 feet during one of the coldest winter
months in February. According to their recollection,
the experience was beautiful, enjoyable and peaceful
travelling up those rugged snow-capped San
Bernardino mountains. As when they were hit by a
blizzard on their way down the dangerous, slippery
slopes, the main roads were closed and one by one
snow-tires breaking, fear of uncertainty crept in. Only
then by relying on God’s intervention, His people
come to realize of His unfailing wisdom and guidance
to those who always call on Him! The journey down
unfamiliar grounds was guided all along as each one
took care of one another to ensure everyone’s safety
and make it safely back home. Praise God for the
abundant love and care shown to His people!
