The 11th Annual Beulah Beach is about to happen again. I have only missed one auction. I love Beulah Beach, it is my happy place. I have been going to Beulah Beach my entire 47 years. I was a camper from age 8-18, then I was a camp counselor from 18-30 something :). I also worked for a year there as the Guest Service Coordinator.
Beulah Beach is where I made a commitment to serve the Lord full time- be it overseas or state side, I knew that God was calling me to share His love with others. But, then He calls all of us who love Him and have a personal relationship with Him to share His love. I just felt that my job would involve ministry of some sort. And while my full time job is not a ministry persay, I do my work as a service unto the Lord. And I do work providing insurance for churches and ministry related businesses.
I am blessed to be able to do several mission trips a year. I have found that even if I do not have a job that mission related these mission trips really rewarding. I love making a difference for Him.
I have only missed one of the 11 benefit auctions. They are such fun and I love seeing my friends! Normally the trip to Beulah takes me about an hour and forty five minutes and is around 73 miles. This year I decided to make it a "Tea Trip" and it took me four and half hours, and over 102 miles!!!
Stop #3, was in Wellington. When I went to stop for Bread-N-Brew, I pulled in to the parking place and realized that there was an insurance agency that Mennonite Mutual, my company worked with. I popped in and said hi and then headed to the Bread-N-Brew.
I have seen this place for years as I drove up to Beulah Beach, I have wanted to stop for a long time. I was a bit disappointed that there was no real tea here, only coffee. The food looked good though. But, this was a trip about tea, not food.
I did order a raspberry iced tea. It was good, but like any other iced tea you'd get at a restaurant.
7 teas to Beulah!!!
Lake Erie sunset never disappoints! In the distance you can see Cedar Point.
