We took a few days at the beginning of this week to get our student missionaries together and go on a mini retreat in the mountains. We went camping and hiking, had some prayer time and discussion, and lots of fun! More details on that later :)
To catch y'all up to speed, I'd like to introduce our team for the 2012-13 year. Most of them you will recognize from last year.
First off, we have Kelley Hogan, our fearless leader! She's back from Sugarland, TX and ready to head out into battle on the college campus. This year she's excited to work with our student missionaries on their leadership and evangelization skills. Her goal is to double the number of students leading Bible studies on campus - from 30 to 60!
Javier is also returning for a second year at UNC!! (like I said, you'll recognize most of us!) This is a picture of Brad, another student missionary, and Javi. He's taking on men's formation this year - mostly hosting men's nights to discuss what it means to be masculine and a true man of God. He is also working on our team development... ie as missionaries we like to continue learning about our Catholic faith and Jav is going to help us keep it up :)
Last, but not least, we'd like to welcome Dana to the team! She is originally from Colorado and is familiar with the area - super helpful. She was just married in May and her husband, Derek, is a grad student. They are expecting their first child!!!! Due in March... no big deal. She is tackling women's formation and Greek outreach! She is spunky and a bundle of energy - so glad to have her on the team!
Keep us in your prayers as we begin the ten days of Welcome Weekend events! Whoop!!
