MS North Carolina Training Overnight Recap

We had a wonderful evening and morning of training on Friday and Saturday.  We continued studying Abram's encounter with God in Genesis on Friday night as well as watched an episode of Extreme Home Makeover in order to look at another organization that helps meet people's needs through home repair.  On Saturday we filled two charter buses and headed over to the campus of W&M where we split into teams for an "Amazing Race" style competition in which teams had to complete 10 different challenges at stations around the campus.  We used this competition as a team building exercise since every team was made up of the students that will be in their small group on the trip.  We wanted them to understand the challenges and benefits that come from working on a team to complete a common goal.

Below are links to any forms that you may need as well as the questions we looked at during small group time if you would like to ask your son or daughter about them.  Thanks for partnering with us as we work to make this mission trip as beneficial as possible for your child.
