We have just finished our leadership camp for year 9/10 students from schools in South Australia. We had 8 students, who were keen to try and develop as leaders and to learn how to take mission seriously in their school. We had a series of talks based around Pete's leadership triangle, took the students out for a 2 day desert camp (a real highlight for many of them), had leadership and group activities. They joined us for scripture at Central and shared their stories.
Part of the aim of the camp was to get them to think through a plan for having an impact in their own schools and to end up with one or two goals in mission. They all did this and I will visit them later in the year to find out how it is going. It is really good to get young people starting to think outwardly and to see the things that they are going to have to give up to get there.
Our first years worked hard as they took part in various aspects of the camp from running activities, supervising the students and catering for the camp and centre. It was a good experience for them as well in learning how to lead and organise. We are all tired from the week but feel that it was a really worthwhile time.
Pray for Emily, Ainslie, Amy, Ryan, Ryan, Bethany, Libby and Rachel the students from the camp.
