Further details for those interested in joining us for project leader training in Ireland

Hello there!
Are you interested in being trained as a project leader for a short term mission trips?  Would you like to receive hands on experience and personal training?  Then you should consider joining us for our project leader training trip to Dublin, Ireland!

This trip will be taking place, December 4th-December 10th.  The cost of the trip will be $900.00 plus the cost of airfare.  We are looking to take a group of 15 people or less, in order to be very focused in our training and to give more individual attention to our potential project leaders.

Further details of what this trip will look like: You will fly into Dublin, Ireland on December 4th.  Immediately we will lay the foundation for you to understand what it looks like to run a trip effectively and what it looks like to have a successful short term trip.  You will each be placed in a small group that you will work with throughout the week.   In your small groups you will spend time doing ministry together, along with each of you taking a turn to lead each other as a project leader, and then giving each other feedback.   You will be given small challenges to face that project leaders face when they are on the field, and your group will work together to meet the challenge (i.e. find an inexpensive hostile to host your group for the night, find a ministry partner to do ministry with, etc.)  You will learn how to teach listening prayer by being taught and by having practice teaching this, again within your small group.   Along the way, you will be coached and encouraged as you project lead your small group.  And at the end of every day, we will will gather together over a meal to debrief the day: sharing with each other our challenges, encouraging each other in what we see God doing, and learning from each others experiences.  

We are so excited for this trip and to be able to offer this type of training!  Like I have mentioned before, we would like to keep this to a small group, and therefore we would love to know as soon as possible if you would like to commit to being a part of this training.   If you would like to commit to being a part of the trip or if you have any questions, please contact Julie Engelsman at [email protected] or Connie Rock at [email protected].

Blessings, Julie
