What will humility look like on the ground in Mexico? It will particularly look like serving and gratitude, the other two flavors of our trip. In addition, it can and should look like:

  • Flexibility. Some things we’re doing, we won’t end up doing. Some things you start doing, you won’t finish doing. Some things you want to do, you won’t get to do. Some things you don’t want to do, you’ll be asked to do. Part of humility is being prepared to release your expectations and desires for the good of others.
  • Talking. The five15 Challenge is in effect in Mexico, people. Humility will also mean coming prepared to reach out to the members of our team you don’t know as well, coming ready to interact with the kids, coming ready to care for and serve the staff.
  • Not Talking. There will be points where we need to give you instructions, or times when we are hearing froom someone in a large group.  These are times when humility shows itself in listening.
  • Encouragement.  Evidences of God’s grace will abound.  Humility is quick to see those things and quick to encourage others for them.
