Planning Day
29 October 2009

Every year or eighteen months, the Maryknoll Cambodia Mission Team meets for a planning day. This year the session was held at the Korean Diakonos Center in Phnom Penh, near the Maryknoll office.

Luise Ahrens leading a CMT discussion Luis Ahrens and Celina Campas were the main organizers for this planning day. Celina was sick so the job of facilitating the discussions fell to Luise.

Meeting at the Diakonos Center The Cambodia Mission Team now has 21 members in a variety of projects. Planning days are essential to help the group maintain its vision and effectiveness. This year particular emphasis was put on making projects manageable while fufilling the commitments Maryknoll has made to the government and to the people Maryknoll serves.

Enjoying the morning break This year the planning meeting was held at the Korean Diakonos Center, a facility run by a Korean Christian group. The center is very well equipped for meetings and has this open fifth floor for breaks and for catered meals. This was the morning coffee break.

Small group discussion At one point in the afternoon, the CMT met in four small groups to identify successes and failures of Maryknoll's work and also new opportunities that will present themselves.

Posting discussion results The results of the discussions were posted on a board and were recorded and will become the basis for future discussions and planning.
