Format of Reflections/Trip Journal

Sharing our day, reflection and prayer:

Who: Participants will break up into teams at Bethlehem Farm and they will give us the format to share our day and to lead reflection and prayer time.

When: As determined by Bethlehem Farm.

What: As determined by Bethlehem Farm. Generally, there is much room for creativity based around a given topic.

Trip Journal: Everyone will be responsible for recording an assigned day in our group memory journal. Since we are limiting use of electronics these will be handwritten to be typed in later. We ask that you write something down at the end of your assigned day, even just phrases while the memory is fresh. You may add to this later if you choose.

Content: If we learned some important facts please note these. You can access notes you may have taken during the day, our resources in the binder, and things you look up, even before the trip. You can share funny moments, reflections shared by team members, stories you heard that day, or whatever you feel will best represent our day. You can talk to other work groups and team members for their thoughts during the course of the day and evening.

Format: Although your personal reflection can be a part of this, it is designed to be a group journal. It is best to refer to yourself in the third person, as one of the group.

Length: There is no limit on this. It is simply for our benefit.
