Friday, May 8th marks exactly 3 weeks until the beginning of our trip. This means that you should be beginning your studies in “The Journey.” This bible study is given to you by AIM to try and prepare you spiritually and culturally for your trip to the Philippines.
You can find “The Journey” on your account page at www.adventures.org.
Here is how you get there:
1. Go to www.adventures.org
2. Click on the “My Account” Tab at the top of the page
3. Under “Next Step & World Race Missions” click on Next Step Missions
4. Enter your log in information
5. Under the “Application Status” heading you will find a red line that says:

Click on page.
6. Under “Required Reading” you will find Journey: The First Three Weeks. Click to download it.
We would like for you to get through the first three weeks of “The Journey” before you come to training camp. Some of the days take a while to complete so try to stay on top of it each day. Some of the information may not apply to you, but most of it is really helpful. I especially liked the section on “Surrender.” The cultural information is also very helpful in preparing for your trip.
“The Journey” is several pages long, so if you don’t wish to print off the entire thing don’t feel like you have to. You can do it off of the computer if you would like. But I would encourage you to journal your way through it. There is a lot of scripture and a lot of information which is easy to forget if you don’t write it down.
Happy reading and I can’t wait to travel through the rest of this book when you get to Gainsville. You will receive a hard copy of the whole book when you get here.
