Pre-Program Training
Pre-Program Training is an important aspect of preparing for ACTION:Winnipeg because it helps you and your team get the most out of your mission experience. By investing this time you can better prepare yourself for the mission ahead. Pre-Program Training can be broken down into two parts: The Next Mile Goer Guide & Meeting with Your Mentor.
Next Mile Goer Guide
Once accepted, you will receive A Next Mile Goer Guide. MB Mission has teamed up with The Next Mile, a resource organization that helps lay the foundation and provides follow-through for your mission trip. The purpose of this Guide is to help you prepare and unpack your experience so that you can discern God's leading for your future. As part of the material, each participant must find a mentor and meet with them before and after their trip.
Meet with Your Mentor
As a pre-requisite for being accepted onto the ACTION:Winnipeg program, you and your mentor will need to complete a Mentor Covenant (click to download) that outlines your commitment to meet together two times before the program and six times after you return home.
A resource for your mentor is provided in the Next Mile Goer Guide that will help to guide and direct some of your meetings together - discuss your expectations before going, and then how to apply what you have experienced into your life back at home.
