MTI, part 1

We've hit the mid-point of our missions training at MTI (Mission Training International) here in Colorado. So what is a part of our training here at MTI? Here are a few things we've covered:

• Who We Are Under Stress (complete with an overseas hostage simulation)
• Conflict Resolution Styles
• Personal and Cultural Values
• Cultural Differences
• The Greatest Discipleship & Evangelism Tool: our love for one another as Christians (in families and other relationships)
• Self-Awareness (know who we are and where we're from as we enter our new culture)

God has been showing us tons about ourselves and who He is during our training. Below are a few photos from our time here at MTI:

Us with fellow ECMI missionary candidates to Spain, Hans & Jennifer Anderson (no relation)--it's been good getting to know each other better through this training.

Pikes Peak at the summit, where the air is quite frigid and thin!
