The staff retreat is one of the highlights of our trip as we get to fellowship and spend some focused time for the staff to meet and discuss the progress of their organization. It is one of our mission priority to facilitate such retreat; a designated time where they can be together without any distractions or time restraint. It is a time where each of them can share their concerns, success, and future hopes for the ministry.

On day one, we had a time of worship and devotions, followed by a team-building game. Crystal then led a session from Orange's Parenting Through The Phases. The rest of the day was spent discussing how they can navigate the digital world with the children and teens in the centre.

We love the staff here at HOM; from the teachers, mothers, social workers, to the directors. They have sacrificed all of their lives in reflecting Christ's love by serving their community. We pray their bonds will continue to grow deeper and wider as God blesses their ministries.
