Will include: Individual and group activities Individual and group homework Individual and group assignments Individual research tasks 7. Upholding love and truth This is a brief summary of participant responsibilities to uphold love throughout the programme. More detailed information and the approach that facilitators will take to uphold love is provided in "Appendix 2: Upholding Love & Truth". Participants are encouraged to be transparent, truthful and uphold truth and love, in all their dealings during the programme. Making mistakes is okay; however, participants will be required to correct their mistakes. Participants have the personal requirement to: Be responsible for their attitude, intentions, behaviours, emotional and physical wellbeing Identify which attitudes, intentions and behaviours are out of harmony with love Develop their attitude, intentions, behaviours, and skills in a positive way Programme activities are designed so that participants have the opportunity to: Try new things Be outside of their personal comfort zone Experience a variety of situations and conditions to see how they respond to these experiences, some of which may feel challenging Identify attitudes, intentions and emotions that effect their ability to serve Take action to remove from themselves the unloving attitudes, intentions and behaviours 7.1. Forms of correction (temporary removal & exclusion) In the best interests of the participants and facilitators, there are some situations where the most loving thing to do is temporarily remove or permanently exclude a participant or participants from the programme (see "Appendix 2: Upholding Love & Truth" for more detailed information). Temporary removal refers to a short period of time, such as the duration of an activity or part of an activity. Temporary removal will occur to; To create an opportunity for the participant to reflect upon and take emotional steps to resolve an unloving attitude, desire, behaviour that is negatively impacting upon themselves or others during the programme activities, and to, God's Way Participant Preparation Pack Page 2 of 11
To limit the effect of an unloving attitude within the participant upon others and the programme activities Exclusion refers to being permanently removed and not being able to continue to participate in the rest of programme. Exclusion will occur if; The participant has been given ample time and opportunity to address an unloving attitude or behaviour but has made no attempt to rectify it and remains in a state of justifying the attitude or behaviour, and/or, The participant's behaviour is directly and actively attacking towards others, themselves or the environment How early in the programme a participant is temporarily removed and/or excluded depends on the severity of their attitude, intention or behaviour. Participants who actively attack or harm others, themselves or the environment, or who have the intention to do so, will be immediately excluded from the programme. Participants who are excluded will have the opportunity to reapply to future Volunteer Selection Programmes. Before acceptance to any future programmes, participants will need to emotionally address the issue that caused them to previously be excluded. 8. Volunteer selection Participants who; engage with the weekly programme requirements, and, demonstrate a sincere attitude of service, and, display the favourable qualities outlined in "Appendix 1: Programme Objectives" will complete the programme. Those who complete the programme may then be invited to participate in volunteer training with either Divine Truth or God's Way organisations. While participants will be trained in certain tasks during the selection programme, they will not be trained in specific roles or skills necessary to volunteer within either Divine Truth or God's Way organisations. If a participant does not have the attitude, qualities and skills needed to complete the selection programme, or is unwilling to develop these themselves, independent of assistance, then they will not be a suitable volunteer for future projects of either organisation. 9.
