Last weekend, Marissa and Aly attended Church of the Brethren Youth and Young Adult Ministries Young Adult Conference at Camp Blue Diamond! In addition to having fun with friends, enjoying camp, and sharing about BVS and Church of the Brethren FaithX, Aly also led a BVS themed escape room! They also found a throwback BVS brochure...

If you're sad you missed the escape room, not to worry! We will be bringing it to Annual Conference and NYC this summer!
