That's what's up next! I realised I promised to update you so I shall...
The MDT is 5 months long. I'm moving to the base tomorrow, Registration/Welcome's on the 7th, and Orientation begins on the 8th :) I've met 2 of my 3 other roommates, and they're lovely girls!
The amazing thing is that I'm staying in the exact same room I stayed in when my team missed the train to Port Elizabeth during the Ultimate Goal Challenge! What are the chances! Haha.
Anyway, there're about 35 trainees from all around the world (whom I've yet to meet). Basically, it's Missions and Discipleship Training. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, I'll basically be learning about my identity - my strengths and weaknesses and why I am the way I am, God - who He is, what He's done, what He's doing, the Bible - what it talks about and what it means for me as a Christian, and missions - what the situation in the world is, how I am part of God's plan in missions, how to reach out to people, how to share God's love...
Yup, something like that. I'm sure there'll be a tonne of other lessons... So I'll share them with you as I learn about them :)
Pray for me as I go and grow! I'll need it... Thanks :)
Love,
Marianne
Learning about Identity, I just managed to.
ReplyDeleteLearning about the world, I'm doing now.
Learning about God, wah lao you are going to come back more qualified than me.
