I realize that the following elements are crucial to the effectiveness, quality, and safety of our leanring and serving experience together. As a student of the program, I agree to:
- Respect people's time by being on-time for all training sessions and learning labs.
- Complete all assignments on time.
- Be respectful of other points of view - especially those that differ from my own.
- Be respectful of program leaders and trainers - especially when they are teaching and/or training me.
- Maintain a teachable spirit.
- Develop and maintain a servant’s attitude toward my leaders and fellow students as well as others whom we will meet.
- Work hard at making friends and being friendly towards others.
- Not speak negatively of area churches or church leaders. If there is a serious matter, I will commit to following the principles laid out in Matthew 18 before making any public statements. If I am unfamilair with any of these steps, I will seek out the program leader(s) for guidance.
- Be ready to pray for others, share my story with others, and/or share the gospel with others as the Lord gives me opportunity.
- Regularly pray for my trainers, my fellow students, my church, my community, and the world.
