Excellent Trainings

There have been many guests on board the Logos Hope in the past few weeks. With the completion of the ship in sight, many people from around the world are anxious to come see the ship and learn about it's great potential. When guests visit the ship, many offer their services to the ship in the form of giving trainings, workshops and seminars to the ship's company. We've had the opportunity to take part in many excellent trainings in the past few weeks. We attended a workshop last week about creative ways to reach out to kids and adults like through means such a balloon animals, magic tricks, etc. We also went to a class on dealing with broken and hurting relationships. We learned about forgiveness, both offering it and accepting it. Another workshop was about the religion of Islam, so we can become more familiar with the religion as we reach out to people all throughout the world. Another great class was about Jonah from the Bible. We gained great new wisdom and perspective about his life. There have also been a few business leaders on board that have talked about how business can be used in missions as a means to reaching more people for Christ. Lastly, we've been attending a series of classes this week about evangelism from a gentleman that's been a missionary with OM for 40 years! All the classes have been excellent. We feel so blessed to be able to sit under such wisdom.

wow! these classes sound amazing! I'm envious of you learning so much and being surrounded by people who love the Lord and want to grow! Please pray for me at my work where I'm feeling bogged down by others around me!
