We have experienced growth of 2 weekend trainings during the last year; one in Italy and one in Romania. It was a real delight to serve these motivated people.
In Italy, 12 fitness professionals connected and grew in their learning about holistic health and how to see the fitness context as a mission field. 3 people from Romania and France also joined in the Italian training. That connection has resulted in them wanting to train in their own countries. Italy has also experienced a growth of a network of health and fitness professionals that plan
to have a training in the south of the country.
Romania say 12 fitness enthusiasts connect and grow in their learning how to take care of the body, mind and spirit and how to share their faith in Jesus in and through fitness. One senior leader is now serving by mentoring 3 of the girls from the training weekend.
Through the ECSU Gathering in Malta, we were able to meet and connect with new fitness friends, and they are now included in the community of practice in Europe. We have had 6 Zoom calls during the year to inspire and connect people with the passion for Jesus and fitness and have identified 10 key leaders that we invest in to grow and keep in contact with every month.
