CC-New Zealand has a Leadership Fast Track event mid-January with approximately 10 young people attending. This will train some chosen young people to be facilitators in Adventure based Learning. Pray there will be the right young people on this training week.
CCI-UK trusts and prays that all their fellow associations will have a blessed and peaceful New Year. Please pray for a blessed national conference to encourage and fill CCI-UK delegates as they set off into a new year of ministry.
Please pray for Christian Camping Community Malaysia's (CCCM) plenary for 2018 in the coming weeks. The CCCM has many challenges that will come their way next year including having a formal line-up of its office bearers, registration as a formal organization, being part of the Asia Pacific Rendezvous as well as two major events in 2018.
Jan. 20-March 23, 2018 CCI-Latin America will begin a 10-week training course for program directors in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. They are praying for 25 people to attend, representing 12 churches/ministries. The fruit of this 150-hour course will be the creation of 12 brand new camp programs (one per church/ministry). They will work in teams and will be accompanied as they walk through the 12-steps to creating and planning a camp program. All the steps are documented and their graduation depends on their handing the final recompilation. Pray for them to be able to get one mentor (former graduates) per group since that has been the key success factor. Many groups don’t know how to work as a team so the mentor helps them along the way.
CCI-Russia is excited to celebrate 25 years as an association at our national conference in February 2018. Pray that God will cause a record number to register. Pray also that God will provide the right person to join the national office staff in the role of Training Programs Coordinator.
