In a previous post I mentioned that I was participating in a Summer Program through The Navigators and promised more information in the future. So here it is!
The theme verse for the program this summer is II Corinthians 2:18 which says, "as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal."
The program lasts 8 weeks, plus a couple of orientation days. During the week (Monday through Friday) everyone in the program works during the day. Team leaders (that's me) work until noon and have prep time and training from noon until about 5 when everyone else gets done working. Then after dinner there is large group teaching and worship, small group Bible Study, a workshop or a social activity.
Each week we look at a different aspect of the life of a Christ Follower. Some of the different themes are intimacy with Christ, God's heart for the Nations, scripture, prayer, relationships,, and service.
The weekends are a mix of fellowship and outreach. On Friday nights there is always some organized social activity for the whole program. We spend most of Saturdays studying and practicing evangelism. In the mornings we have teaching from one of the staff members and in the afternoon we go to the beach in Jacksonville ad spend some time engaging in spiritual conversation with the people there. Also, during the summer, everyone has a home church that they attend and serve on Sundays.
I am so excited just talking about it all!
