Team Commissioning Service - March 29, 2012

Commissioning Service -

On Thursday, March 29th our team had our Commissioning Service / Chapel in the afternoon.  The entire school was present, as well as parents, family members, prayer partners, extended family members and friends of the team.
As a team we shared the skit and the song that we have prepared to share with our friends in Nicaragua.  We talked about where we would be going, and what we would be doing as a team while we are there.  Each team member shared a scripture verse that was important to them in regards to this trip, as well as what we were each feeling challenged in and were looking forward to in this trip. 
Our prayer partners, family members and friends were then invited forward to join us.  Together they came and laid hands on the team and prayed for the team … ” commissioning us” before we leave on this awesome journey!  We felt incredibly humbled and blessed by the support of all of the people present in the gymnasium … we know, undoubtedly, that we are covered in prayer as we leave on this journey!  It is our prayer that God will use us, that God will change us, and that God will be glorified throughout this entire experience!
