Aloha
It is hard keeping up with work at Practical (www.associate.com/groups/practical ) but I am going to try. The 14th was an official welcome party for us all. Over 50 leaders representing at least 15 different nations (I think).
We had a lot of spare time after breakfast so my room mate, Emmanuel (from Pakistan), decided to explore Kihei a little bit..our goal, the Shopping center.
Nice place just round the corner from the HI estate with a handful of stores. I managed to buy 2 books and got a 20% discount for being on the training (nice).
Later on, we had Games which were meant (i believe), to be ice breaking events and get-to-know your neighbour event. At the end of the game my team (the bible brothers) were declared the winners while the blue team was declared the champions! Wha I know though is that we won out of the 3 events...
Learnings?
1. Teamwork can't do without if you intend to advance, make progress and achieve goals.
2. Diversity we come from a diveree background, laden with rich experiences that make each of us unique in a way as a tool for the master to use in accomplishing the great commission. It may be challenging to accept the views of others but RESPECT is the key word even as you say your convictions.
In conclusion, a word that excited my spirit this morning (5/07/2008)
..In that day, saith The Lord of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed and be cut down and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it. Isaiah 22v25
no situation our lord cannot resolve.
Blessings
