Long Term Training
I'm thankful for a really good relationship with the Gap
Year and Long Term Training leaders and this has resulted in the opportunity to
provide more input into the course syllabus. With each Gap Year group in
September/October we run several cross-cultural training and preparation
classes before taking them on a mission trip, in November 2016 we visited
Egypt, in November 2017 we will go to Morocco.
With each Long Term Training
group from November to February we run 6-8 classes on leadership development in
a mission trip setting. This provides them with the real life opportunity to
plan, run and lead a short term mission trip to a location of their choosing in
March. Whilst on the trip they each lead different days and each day we spend
an hour discussing and reviewing what has been observed and learnt. It is a
great opportunity to develop cross-cultural people focused leaders. This March
I go with this group to Egypt.
Pray for Egypt - for Christians to live a life of love and
mercy towards their Muslim neighbours and colleagues.
Pray for our group - that they would learn and develop in
cross cultural group leadership and be an encouragement to the mission partners
that we will visit.
