-30 Degree weather with the wind chill proved no match for the MLC youth group this January! With lots of layers and a fair amount of beaver tails, a troupe of 9 braved the cold and went on a retreat to Ottawa for the weekend. Luckily, the whole Rideau Canal was open for skating and there were plenty of museums to visit to keep warm and learn a little more about Canadian history. Special thanks to the Martin Luther Church in Ottawa for the accommodations and hospitality!
