Week One Complete

While the internship began on the 13th of January, officially week one ended today. It has been a very full week and a half, with classes in the morning, and the interns doing language learning in the afternoons. Honestly, I have not been this busy in a long time. And you never feel qualified for this kind of thing. I feel a huge sense of responsibility with Calvary International trusting us with this project, and also Christ for the Nations Institute trusting us with their students. Thankfully this is a team effort. The entire Calvary team is taking on this internship, and we are blessed to have Calvary's Vice-President of Field Ministries, Tim (and later his wife, Nancy) Lovelace here showing us how to do this.

The team of interns are doing great. I am impressed that they are always on time for classes and events. They have truly unified into a solid team. I fully expect this to be a life-changing ten weeks--myself being the one who will change the most.

In a single day I (Dave) had meetings "in" the Philippines, Nepal, the Ukraine, Poland, Guyana, AND the United States, all while sitting at my desk. In February we were promoted as the Vice Presidents of Equipp...

Empowering the Next Generation

A big step in becoming a missionary with Go To Nations is the Timothy Internship Program . This is a 10 week boot camp that prepares you for full time missionary service in a foreign country. I call it a missionary factory. Chris and I were directors of this internship in the Philippines, Thailand, and the US. Recently I traveled to the Philippines to equip and empower Jeff Weimert  and Ryan Hull  to be the directors of the ...
