We had a rally at the Nav office last weekend. Wency from the Philippines Nav shared on his community team setup and lesson learnt. He called it a missional community. In brief, a community should have three elements. The foremost is that a community should be relational. The members in the community should have a transformational life as well. That's the second element. In other words, one couple or family has the influence of transforming other member's life especially in spiritual life. Lastly, a community should be missional. Members need to relate to outsiders as part of their missional work. So one does not need to go out from his or her comfort zone to be a mission worker. How's your community life sound like?
Category: Travel OK, time is catching up. I have about 3 weeks left before the trip. Have drafted out initial itinerary: 6 May - Fly to BKK and transit to Udon Thani. From Udon Thani, go to Nong Khai and cross over Laos border. Immigration office opens until 10pm. Hope to reach Vientiane before midnite. 7 May - Excursion around Vientiane. 8 May - Travel to Vang Vieng. Not really want to spend 11 hours on the bus to get to Luang Prabang. Have a pit stop will be nicer. 9 May - Continue to Luang Prabang. 10 May - Excursion around Luang Prabang. 11 May - Slow boat to Pak Beng. Mandatory pit stop due to slowliness of the boat. 12 May - Slow boat to Huoy Xai. I guess have to over night here (immigration office might be closed at time of arrival). 13 May - Cross over to Thailand. Might not stay in Chiang Rai. Proceed to Chiang Mai. 14 May -Back to Malaysia.
