TRAINING CAMP is coming to a close.
Right now it is 5.30 am on Saturday morning and we are hours away from
parents coming to visit for Open House. We are only 36 hours away from boarding
a flight for the United Kingdom. And we will be busy busy busy until that point
(which is why I am up so early to write this blog, because our schedule is so
full). Our Scotland team has been doing great. We’ve had some minor injuries
and homesickness but the excitement for our ministry in Scotland has been
building and all of the hours spent praying and fundraising and trusting God is
about to come to fruition.
Training Camp is a busy affair. Our students have gone through
teachings such as Being Culturally Sensitive, the Necessity of Truth, Identity
in Christ and Forgiveness. Matt Halseth blessed me with the privilege of
teaching on Restitution, which I shared with our team yesterday. They’ve also
learned disciplne, responsibility and humility through the structure and
priorities we maintain at Training Camp.
Please keep our entire team in your prayers this summer. Pray that we
would be preaching the gospel of Christ and not our own selfish ideas. Pray for
our relationship with each other, that we would remain in unity and that gossip
and dissent would have no place here. Pray for Kelsie and I that we would
continue to strive to serve and love each other in a stressful environment
while still putting God first in our marriage. Finally, pray for the Scottish
people who are about to encounter our 24 students and staff and consequently,
we hope, encounter Jesus.
Jack and Kels
