Resources and Handouts for RTD Pilot Project.
The links below are for various handouts and other resources from the kick-off workshops and more. I use Dropbox. Please contact me if you have any trouble with downloads.
- Brain/Health Workshop Handout link.
- "Walk To" resources. (Pick a mission destination - your upcoming mission trip destination or a missionary location - and tally all the miles from the congregational members' exercise over a specific block of time. A simple way to engage a large segment of the congregation in healthy exercise and lift up specific missions.) Contact Karen Sue Murdy.
