T-minus 10 Days....

In 4 days I go back to Indiana to get my vaccinations, pack and spend some time with my family. In 10 days I report to what Royal Servants alumni lovingly refer to as "The Hay Field"..... mostly because that is exactly what it is. For one month I will be living in a tent on a hay field. Time on the field is amazingly special. Week one will be a time when the Reign Staff all come together and finalize plans and prepare for the summer. Week two is our Senior Staff week, our summer senior assistants will all be in where we do more preparation as well as training for specific staff rolls. Week three is our Staff Discipler week, the college age Disciplers come in and get to go through training and get a glimps of what their students will go through.... Week 4 is officially "Training Camp" or Student week. The students come in and we spend 7 intense days preparing them for the ministry to come. We do memorization, teachings, worship, time with the Lord, they learn their street ministry. We laugh, we cry, we sweat. It is an amazing amazing time of fellowship and team unity and growth. And then we head to our respective mission fields. Mine happens to be Sierra Leone, others will be Nepal, China, Israel, Costa Rica, Ireland, Eastern Europe and India.
