2 Weeks of Training in Paraguay
Sunday, February 7, 2010 at 10:53AM We just received an exciting invitation which happens to fit very nicely into our time of transition:
"The International Management Team would like to offer Shauen and Krista Trump the opportunity to attend the pilot global mission training effort by LCMS WM and partners in Latin America. This training will be held from May 18-27 in Paraguay. Note that this is a three year commitment. Next year the courses will be held in a different location. All in all there are six courses. The first two courses are on Missio Dei and Worldview.”
That's right. Paraguay in South America. Sounds pretty cool, huh? The week-and-a-half training in Ciudad del Este fits just perfectly into our time of transition - after we've moved to Nairobi but before we head to Tanzania for kiswahili language training. It also means that Josiah will have been in four countries before visiting his homeland: Uganda, Kenya, Paraguay, Tanzania, and finally, in September, the good ol' US of A! Please pray for this pilot program as it comes together for the first time. We'll let you know as we get more details about this opportunity. -Shauen
