Team Building Begins




One of the most important components of preparation for NATIVITY:NIGERIA teams is team building and education. Our teams spend a significant amount of time getting to know each other, their stories, and their families. Each team spends time working with the large NATIVITY:NIGERIA team, as well as the smaller site teams. This past week's meeting was packed with a discussion about what brought each team member to NATIVITY:NIGERIA and ended with the "human pretzel" completed in record time.

The Preparation Begins



All three of our teams met together for the first time this past week. All of the missionaries met each other for the first time and we had a huge turnout of ministers volunteering to serve on the Home Team. The teams will be meeting regularly throughout the spring and summer in order to prepare, pray, learn, and serve leading up to their trip in August. Stay tuned for regular updates, spotlights on missionaries, events that you can get involved with, and projects that we are partnering on both here and abroad.
