Our first week of the Fall quarter kicked off with a series of events culminating in what we call a Love Feast. We gather our entire base staff and all of the new students from both our Discipleship Training School and our SBFM (all nineteen of my students!)for a lovely meal at a church facility in Maui's refreshingly cool upcountry.
Besides sharing a meal and celebrating the arrival of these students in our family for this season, we aim to demonstrate our heart to serve them during this time of growth in their lives. We do this by literally washing their feet and having a staff member pray for every one of them individually. It was a remarkable night, as always- blessing and encouraging our students.
