MOP Evaluation > To be completed on the last afternoon.

• If you know you will be missing a meal in the MEC, please let Marcie know ASAP so Bertha can have an accurate count for meal prep.
• Please take a peek at the documents on the table in the back of the training room that need your attention…
• form 1 - fill out if you need a magnetic name badge. Sample is by the form.
• form 2 - parent's address information. Warren Janzen sends a Christmas letter to parents of those who have left for the field within the year. If it is not appropriate for him to send the letter, please just note N/A by your name. Otherwise….I will start bugging you for their address. For those whose parents do not speak English, we will do our very best to have the letter translated into the language you indicate.
• Events for this week….
• Tuesday is the Muslim outing to Hamtramck. Dress warm! Shoes will be removed at the mosque so make sure your socks are presentable! Also, it is easier if you have shoes/boots that are easy to slip on and off. Ladies will wear head coverings in the mosque. If you have a scarf that covers your entire head, bring it along. If not, Karen Mindling will bring some that you are welcome to borrow. We will have lunch at a local Bengali restaurant and then do a little shopping along Bengali Street. We will be back in time for a light supper and a time of debrief with Tim and Karen Mindling in the MEC.
• Wednesday evening you will be participating in a Regional Dinners in an IO Staffers home. More info to come in an announcement on Monday or Tuesday.
• Thursday will be your Day Alone with God, aka DAWG. This is always a highlight of MOP. Ken will share more details with you in Spiritual Formation sessions this week. You will also receive a list of places you can go for the day. Sack lunches will be provided. Some choose to fast during this day. If you feel led to do so, please let Marcie know so Bertha can have the right amount of food on hand.

Happy Friday!!

• Today you will be signing security documents during the lunch hour. Please make sure you bring a government issued photo ID for notarization purposes.
• Tomorrow is a free day! Let Marcie know if you would like some ideas of local outings if you would like to do something off campus. Supper will begin at 5:30 in the MEC.

• couples have 10 minutes

• all testimonies should include your name, where you are from, where you are going, what you will be doing and for those who were here for COP, what the Lord has been teaching you during this time of partnership development.

Good Morning! Hope you had a good night's rest and are ready for the week ahead. Know that many here are praying for you as you begin this two weeks of training.

• Today for lunch you will be eating off campus for Fast Food Assignment. Kiddos will go with parents for lunch and you all will be assigned to various locations. Gary Ridley will explain more prior to the lunch hour.
• Tonight right after supper Ann Baur (Corporate Security Admin. Asst.) is going to give you a briefing (in the MEC) on security documents that you need to have completed prior to leaving for the field. This will be a short session that everyone must attend. The forms will then be notarized on Friday at lunch.
