We have finished up a fantastic week of camp. Many children have been impacted positively towards the gospel and we can continue to pray for the Lord to do His work in their lives. Most of the children do not want to go home as they are not in healthy situations. This camp has been a place where they have been loved and cared for well. Tomorrow morning when we say good bye will be difficult. Please pray for the children, the staff and us as we seek to leave well. We will be leaving Moldova in the morning and traveling back into UN territory. Please pray for our border crossing and safety as we travel back to Iasi.

We have completed two full days of camp! The weather has been great and the camp has run smoothly. Our team has been able to assist the Romanian and Moldovan teams with teaching, discipleship, and providing opportunities to deepen relationships with the Moldovan children who are at the camp. We’ve also enjoyed the food had a lot of fun! Continue praying for health and good weather and for the gospel seeds that are being planted to take root. Also pray for energy, rest, continued cooperation, and gospel focus among the leaders.
