Awareness Retreat at SIFAT near Lineville, AL. They learned
valuable information and experienced hands-on activities in
the following areas: Around the World, Village Luncheon,
International Sharing/Missionary Testimonies, Technology,
and Slum Experience. The students participated in making
an inertia pump, worked in teams on the low ropes course
and walked across a suspended rope bridge. They enjoy various games encouraging team work and role-playing activities.
