This week the camps that are happening are:
- two in Estonia
- ten in Czech
- two in Slovakia
- four in Ukraine
- one in Hungary
- one in Romania
If you'd like to get a feel for our camps check out this video:
This summer we will have a total of one hundred and twenty two camps across our thirteen countries! We have one hundred and five interns serving with us for three months, and over one thousand people serving on short term teams. For each camp, we'll be partnering with a local church to put on an English, sports, European, or music camp. And young people from the town, city, or area will be invited to come along, to learn English or grow in their football skills, or perform in a rock-pop choir, and they'll hear the Gospel and be invited to respond.
The theme for our camps this year is SEEN and we'll spend the week looking at how people are seen by Jesus. Each night we will look at a different encounter Jesus has with someone in the Bible and what that tells us about him, and about us. We're praying boldly that eight hundred and fifty young people will put their faith in Jesus this year. And we're praying that they, and the others at camp, will get plugged into the local church where they'll be discipled to be disciples who make disciples who make disciples.
Please pray with us for the camps that are happening this week -
- for the local church: that they will build relationships with young people from their community and share the Gospel, and that they'll be able to follow up with these students well
- for the interns and short term teams: that God will use them powerfully as they serve the local churches here, and that God would call some of them to this ministry full time!
- for students: that God would powerfully draw many to themselves, and that when they go home they would be excited about growing in Christ.
