Well, in that case... (Thanks Sky!)

It was very enlightening. We had worship services every morning led by different individuals, so we had a wide variety!

We discussed sexuality and religion (the GLBT community and their treatment in the different denominations).

We were able to talk in groups about our different religious backgrounds and experiences ... which was very interesting.

The group was predominately Christian, but we had people who identified as agnostic, and spiritual and even one person who defined themselves as an atheist.

It was spiritually uplifting, with songs and scripture readings and discussion.

I enjoyed it very much indeed.

We also had some regular meeting/conference stuff happening, but that was towards the end of the week.

I feel more grounded in my faith now, and I'm not even exaggerating!

I'm going back to my university with more ideas about outreach in my community and at my university, and being able to network with other universities and groups across Canada (and throughout the world).

It was absolutely awesome!
