Champfleuri Team Covenant 2015
Purpose
The purpose of our missions
trip to Camp TED is to be intentional campers. We want to share our faith and
make relationships, telling people about Jesus with our words and reflecting
Him with our actions. We want to serve God, the French, and the missionaries at
Champfleuri. We also desire to grow in our own faith and in relationship with
each other, being genuine and sincere.
Goals
· Challenge—We will leave our comfort zones knowing that God goes
before us.
· Selfless—We will persevere when we are tired or uncomfortable,
putting others first. We will not take our tiredness out on others.
· Enthusiasm—We will strive to maintain a positive attitude, even
in difficult circumstances.
· Patience—We will show patience with ourselves, others, and
with the leaders at camp.
· Accountability—We will call one another out in love when necessary.
And we will receive correction with humility.
· Respect—We will show respect toward other cultures and
embrace speaking English compassionately with those who are not comfortable
with the language.
· Outward focused—We
will not clump with other Americans and bilinguals. We will purposefully reach
out to the other campers at every opportunity.
· Prayer—We will pray alone and together, for the team, our
leaders, the French campers and ourselves.
Unity
If something is on our minds
we will voice it.
We will talk through
frustrations or issues we have with others.
-First we will talk to the person directly.
-If the issue is not resolved, we will talk to our
leaders.
We will listen to our leaders
and pay attention to them, showing humility and willingness to learn and be
challenged.
We will review this covenant before, during, and after
our time at TED.
As I am able, through the power of the
Holy Spirit, I will hold to this covenant and encourage others on the team to
hold to it as well.
Jonah 2:9 But I, with shouts of grateful praise, will sacrifice to you.
What I have vowed I will make good. I will say, ‘Salvation comes from the Lord.'
