Training Camp, Staff Week

Staff Disciplers seriously make this Royal Servants experience possible. They are the ones who are constantly pouring their lives into the students. They are the ones who tend to be making more sacrifices by giving up their summer freedom. Disciplers are necessary for discipleship, which is the heart of what Royal Servants is about.

Our staff team arrived on Saturday, June 16 and we have been having so much fun since! I have never seen a group so comfortable with each other in so little time. We have 10 disciplers: 8 girls (Anna, Ashley, Kaila, Karissa, Marcie, Michelle, Renee and Stacey) and 2 guys (Cody and Connor). This group of individuals has consistently been raising the bar for team unity.

At this point in time we are divided. Job, Bethany, Ian and 5 of our staff are in Chicago picking up students while Kelsie and I and the remaining 5 staff are holding down the fort at Training Camp waiting for some students who will be driving in. This is what they have been trained for; a week of teachings and individual attention to prepare them to do the same for their discipleship groups.

Pray that they would not be distracted by lies of Satan. Pray for perseverance and longevity, both mentally and emotionally for our staff. Pray for focus on their students and their ministry opportunities in Nepal. Thank God for this week where they have formed great bonds of friendship with each other.
