With the application process successfully completed, Ben & Carolyn are coming out to spend a week living with one of our families and working at MMS. It's part of my job to coordinate, oversee and facilitate their in-hangar evaluation. It's an intense week for the candidate couple as well as for the entire MMS organization as we strive to determine their suitability for service, level of mechanical aptitude, relational skills, and to identify technical and non-technical areas of strength and weakness toward discerning the Lord's will for both the candidate and MMS.
The process involves seven days of direct observation, interviews, performance parameters, and tests both formal and informal. Everyone interacting with Ben & Caroline will fill out review forms and provide me reports of their time with the candidates. There will be a final interview that Friday afternoon and then I'll make a recommendation to accept or reject the candidacy for the CEO's consideration.
Should everything go well, I'll then have the pleasure of orienting Ben & Caroline (Friday evening and all day Saturday) so they can return home to begin raising the support they'll need to serve.
As a point of interest, there are two items in the photo which are key to moving missions forward during long afternoons of administrative activity. Which two items do you think they might be?
