The Father's House is a retreat that the Hope College FOCUS missionaries put on at Camp Geneva in collaboration with FOCUS at GVSU and CMU. There were nearly 50 students from Hope and 150 students from all three campuses. The weekend was about removing false views of God the Father so we can encounter the Father's love for us and live in the Father's House. It included five talks, meditation times, small groups, Mass, Confession, and adoration, with a powerful individual benediction blessing for each person called "the Father's blessing."
This retreat was an amazingly fruitful time! It was such a joy to witness the students come to greater healing, forgiveness, and knowledge of the Father's love for them.
