Ok this is on the facebook group, but to keep everyone else in the know, I’m reposting it here:

We’re going to as a team read books (both of the Bible and missionary based) and memorize Scripture. feel free to participate what you can when you can, because I know scheduling can get dicey, but this month we’re reading:
Acts
Let the Nations be Glad! by John Piper

For the Scripture memory, we’re doing Fighter Verses:
I also think we really need to commit to be praying for this trip, for our team, for the people we meet and the places we go. God’s going to work in mighty ways with or without us, but how cool is it that we get to be on board with something like this? How could we possibly want to let an opportunity like interceding for the nations pass us by?
New team members: feel free to pick up wherever we are as you join! Obviously none of this is mandatory, it’s just something we can do to give us some unity BEFORE camp and to help get us spiritually prepared as the Race approaches.
Almost 5 months to go– finish strong! 🙂
