Back in February all of the staff from El Refugio got together for some professional development time. We began with prayer time as a group. What a wonderful way to begin a day of hard work and problem solving. Our first goal was to come up with a concrete vision and mission for El Refugio and how we would cooperate to accomplish the goal~ how can we be His hands and feet??
After a short devotional from Susan and a lesson from Jessie on servant leadership, we began the afternoon with some group activities and brainstorming. There were 4 main areas or pillars that we addressed which were Unity and Teamwork, Boundaries and Professionalism, Respect for our Ladies, and Good Communication. We worked as a group to share and communicate ways we could improve each of these areas. The day was full of laughter and even some tears. We didn't quite finish with everything we hoped to cover so we plan on finishing up in the next week or two during one of our weekly staff meetings.

Sorry, this blog is coming late. I wasn't able to send it out a few weeks ago as I meant to! Please pray that we can continue growing and improving as a ministry, specifically in the 4 areas I mentioned above.
