5 days of training

We flew out to Kansas City on Sunday morning. It was especially grateful to stay at Roger and Judy’s house the past 2 days for my 50th HS reunion activities.

Uber to DFW. We enjoyed The Club privileges before we took our 8am flight.

Our 5 days were full of training with our whole team of member care providers from all over the world. We had 2 1/2 days of training on Debriefing. Alberta is a specialists in debriefing missionaries for all situations. Like crisis management, trauma, losses in death, losses in change of assignment, loss in dreams, loss in family and jobs.

It was very helpful as we are member care providers for the missionary community. Since our main focus is with retirees, we come thru debriefing a little bit different.

Usually when we visit and take the retiree out for a meal we talk about their field experience, who were their friends on the field and any special events that define their time and ministry.

We learned helpful hints on how to listen and how to engage in the debriefing process.Baca selengkapnya
