Titus Graduation






Last night we graduated our Titus Project students. Ten of these students (YWAMers) will continue on with their outreach phase (teaching) while the rest will return to their ministries (pastors, sunday school teachers etc). We are SO proud of the steps each one has taken and love seeing them inspired to teach others what they've learned!






The night started with some munchies, and worship. We then handed out the individual diplomas with picture taking time. The meal (provided faithfully by the YWAM base cook) was devoured along with raisin juice (boiled raisins with some sugar). The night wrapped up with what I call a 'talent night' as many were called up to sing, dance or share a poem. Jeanine from the Dominican Republic taught us the "salsa dance" while Manasa taught an abridged (and hilarious) version of the "haka". The Mongolians loved it , the children might have been a bit frightened hahaha.
We also were called up to learn a traditional mongolian dance which was fun and I look forward to learning more.

We were given thank you cards and a gift, which was most practical for Manasa and I - a pair each of "slippers" as well as coffee...they know us well! As staff we debriefed and brainstorms ways to improve the next TITUS and look forward to seeing it run again here in Mongolia.
