the adventure begins - September 09
It is late September as we prepare to form a team. Applicants are sending out reference forms and setting appointments for interviews. Leaders are getting ready to spend time together with the newly formed team, teaching, encouraging, equipping and praying. There is great anticipation as to what God will do in the lives of these young servants!
The plan is simple. We prepare to go to Quito Ecuador with International teams of Canada to serve there. Read more about it at http://www.iteams.ca/impact_ecuador.php
Please pray for us as we begin....for wisdom, for unity and for servant hearts.
