THE FULL BLENDING TRIP (26th June – 19th July)
AN INVITATION
You are cordially invited to join the upcoming blending trip in the United States. Students who have been on previous blending trips can testify of the preciousness of these times and of their experiences of the Lord and His Body.
“In the blending…we receive nourishment, we receive revelation, and we receive a vision of God’s eternal purpose concerning Christ and the church. Such a blending is not only for our own mutual spiritual benefit but is also for the mutual building up of the Body of Christ.” (1993 Blending Conference Messages concerning the Lord’s Recovery and Our Present Need, Chapter 2)
The FULL BLENDING TRIP (26th June – 19th July) will include attending the Summer Training in Anaheim, California, the first ever National College Training in Champaign, Illinois with over 1000 students, and a sightseeing and churching tour in between in the Chicago (Illinois) area.
NOTE: You are welcome to join any part of this trip as long as you arrive at the beginning of that particular week. For example, if you want to start joining the church blending trip in week 2 but not the FTTA graduation then you should arrive to Chicago on 5th July.
ITINERARY
WEEK 1 – 26 June – 4th July: Attending the Full-time Training in Anaheim Graduation and the Summer Training in Anaheim, California, on the Crystallization-Study of the book of Exodus (2).
You can register with the church in London if you are in the UK by filling in the registration form at https://docs.google.com/a/churchinlondon.org.uk/forms/d/1E9BiW2JYnoSCC6TkL0TfvtfUz-Ur7oIkGx2qUNHacHQ/viewform or register with your locality if you are in continental Europe. Please remember to request hospitality from LSM unless you are making private accommodation arrangements. The Summer Training is one of the seven annual feasts, attended by over 5000 saints globally and a precious opportunity to be under the Lord’s fresh up-to-date speaking.
WEEK 2 – 5th July – 11th July: Sightseeing and blending with the churches in and around the Chicago area.
In addition to sightseeing, we will blend with the students among the churches in the area.
WEEK 3 – 12 July – 18 July: Attending the first ever National College Training (with 1000+ students) at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign, on God’s Age Turners. Sign up at https://collegetraining.org/2015/ ASAP as spaces are filling up fast.
The specific goal of this training is “to supply college students with a vision, equip them with truth, help them in their experience of life, perfect them in the preaching of the gospel, and develop their character so they can become useful vessels for the building up of the Body of Christ.”
COST
The estimated cost of the sightseeing and churching tour (week 2) is only £200:
However, if you plan to join full blending trip (all 3 weeks) the estimated cost is £1500:
Flights (£1000*)
Return flight between London and Chicago (approx. £800)
Return flight between Chicago and Los Angeles (approx. £200)
Summer Training (£100)
Sightseeing and Churching Tour) (£200)
National College Training (£200)
Alternatively, if you only plan to join the Sightseeing and Churching Tour (Week 2) and the National College Training (Week 3) the estimate cost is £1200:
Return flight between London and Chicago (approx. £800)
Sightseeing and Churching Tour) (£200)
National College Training (£200)
Please be aware that these costs do not include personal spending which should also be accounted for. In previous years about £200 has been recommended.
*You are responsible for arranging your own flights, however we encourage the students to travel together as much as possible. For those joining the full blending trip, the cheapest option is probably to buy two return flights rather than a multi-trip flight (one between London and either Chicago or Los Angeles, and another between Chicago and Los Angeles). Please aim to arrive at LAX international airport in Los Angeles by the afternoon of Friday 26th June, and to leave Chicago no earlier than the afternoon of 19th July.
