The next World Race is schelduled to begin January 2007. Participants in the World Race post blogs, photos, and video to the official website, theWorldRace.org {Link without Title} as they race, visit and minister around the world. The Race has three components: The Race: Teams compete against each other for one or two days at the beginning of each month as they go overland to their next destination. The Ministry: Once they arrive, teams join local partners, serving them in their ministry. Some work in orphanages, others respond to natural disasters, still others plant local fellowships that reach out in love to the community. World Race teams are relevant because they work through pre-existing relationships. The Training: There is an initial pre-trip training that occurs. Thereafter, at the end of each month, teams are debriefed before going on to the next location. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS
