Aspirations....

I know that many of you came away from both our team night and the table quiz really excited and looking forward to the trip. A HUGE thanks to you all for helping out at the table quiz and for making it the MASSIVE success that it was. You made us all very proud and to raise £1400 was just wonderful so a big well done to you all.

So we got our heads together last week and you all came up with what our team might agree to in terms of our commitment to each other and the trip during the weeks and months that lie ahead. You all signed up and agreed to be apart of this!

Our Aspirations during the trip and in the months ahead are...

1. to have fun
2. to talk and interact with everyone
3. to get plenty of sleep
4. to cooperate
5. to stay together
6. to pray and read the Bible
7. to learn something new about ourselves and others
8. to accept gifts graciously
9. to give 100%
10. to have a team time every day
11. to leave nobody out
12. to welcome Chris' dad on to the team
13. to talk about any issues we may have out in the open
14. to read the blog
15. to read the blog again :)

You all did so well last week at all our little get togethers! We're building a real sense of team and you should know how valued each of youis as individual team members!

Have a read through the lists above and think about them. What are your hopes that aren't written up there? What things can the team do to help you with them? What are you doing to contribute towards all the hopes and fears?

Don't forget about our next team night and that we need you all to sign up for the Team Building Morning at BAC by the end of the month! (Check past blog posts for details!)

Have a great week and stay in touch. Legends you all are!

The Leaders :)
