Sunday afternoon, I will be heading back to Colorado for part 3 of the Missions Training I started last summer.  This part of the training is called DAR, which stands for Debriefing and Renewal.  I’m not sure exactly what we will be doing or talking about, but I do know that if it is anything like the training that I went to last summer it will be well worth my time.  I’m also very excited because in addition to going with my team, I will also be there with two other families that I know… so some of my closest friends will be there with me!

Here is a rough draft of our schedule:

• Sunday:
  • Travel to Colorado
  • Dinner and Orientation
• Monday
  • Time in groups with other missionaries from all over the world.
• Tuesday-Thursday
  • Mornings with groups
  • Advising in the afternoons
  • Free-time/time for renewal in the late afternoons/evening
• Friday
  • Groups in the morning
  • Travel back to Texas in the afternoon

Please be praying for:

• Our time in Colorado and as we debrief from our time in Guatemala.
• All attendees and Staff of DAR.
  • Some of the attendees from the Village Church:
    • The Smith Family, serving in Ethiopia (Shane and Allyson, kids: Hannah, Mia and Moses)

    • John and Alisha Forbis, Alisha was a part of my team in Guatemala City, Guatemala
