Pre-field Training


....And so it begins! 


  PFT began on Monday the 23rd of May. The actual training took place in the mountains of North Carolina at a PCA retreat center called Ridge Haven. For three days, interns from all over the country met together in one place to train for their fields. Throughout theses three days, I was honored to interact with amazing young people who all had a common passion; missions. Our mornings began with breakfast provided by the talented staff of Ridge Haven followed by worship. In the afternoons, we had more meetings and team building exercises. These exercises helped us learn how to work together as a team. In the evenings, we ate dinner and then had evening worship followed by free time.

    During out training, I had the great pleasure of leading worship with a few others who had volunteered. Our time of preparations were always easy and filled with joy and it was a really encouraging time for me as I watched God's love pour out from each of my fellow interns. 

I returned from training ready and excited to work in Guanajuato with my 5 sisters in Christ. I leave Tuesday at 8:45 AM and should arrive in GTO at 3:00 PM. Thank you for your prayers!
