STF Newsletter for January 2014

After 10 days of recharging back home, all of our STF members arrived on the 5th of January in Tirana, Albania to participate in our Witnessing Preparation Workshop in Mullet Training Centre. The motto of the workshop was “Inheriting God’s Truth and Heart” where our brothers and sisters could listen to excellent Divine Principle lec- tures from Giuseppe Cali which helped them to understand the DP more clearly. Gergely R (STF Graduate) also came to support the workshop as a MC. The highlight of the workshop was the Divine Principle lecture competition. Each member participated in giving a lecture from The Purpose of Creation and it was a great start in their wit- nessing condition by giving lectures to each other.

STF started their first witnessing condition on the 11th of January and will do witness- ing for a month and then they will visit Korea. I would like to ask for your thoughts and prayers on the members’ success in their first witnessing journey.

WITNESSING WORKSHOP REFLECTIONS

“Inheriting God’s Truth and Heart”

“The best moment was the Q&A session, because I could find some answers, some explanations about my feelings that are allowing me to start this condition with a right heart”

“The best moment was probably when we had our first lecture practice as I was “witnessing” to this person. I felt that I had amazing experiences because I was really learning as I was talking and I was so many realisations during this little time.” Peter N

“The best moment for me on this workshop was having the opportunity to give a lecture in front of everyone. Although there are still many ways I can improve, I really appreciated being able to get our of my comfort zone and face the challenge of delivering something meaningful to an audience.”

“The best moment was the “outing” because I think we shared together like a family and learn about this coun- try that some teams have to love and witness. It was a really happy day and moments.”
