Final day of Camp!Early morning Vasya's mom (Nadia) preparing lunch for the camp.
Today's bible story was act out by the HOM kids instead of us! It's the story of Jesus's birth and how God is Unforgettable. The kids did an awesome job (they were very diligent in memorizing their lines the night before!)
Singing time! Each day there were new kids, today was no exception!
In today's memory verse station, they had to cross the river by stepping on the right sequence of word!
In the Craft station, they decorated a new hat!
Alot of the kids ask us to sign their hats.
Sometimes these 3 words is all you need to know...
Tomson serving lunch! If you notice, Tomson is really really tanned these days!
After lunch we travelled to the Prayer House (Church) to practice and get ready for the Parent's Presentation!
As the kids arrived we found out there was a wedding next day (some decorations started already) so we quickly made some adjustments as the kids waited on the side.
... But first we wanted to thank our volunteers/translators/helpers!!
... And then Practice began!!!
... We wear the hat for the "Jesus in the Boat" song...
More song practices... "Deep, Deep"
... Ivan watching the practice.
Part of the team preparing the refreshments in the lower floor...
... the bakery here are extremely good. We had 4 different kinds of cakes...
The children watched through the window (into the kitchen) with anticipation...
A bit of free time before the event starts.
Some of the family started to arrive.
"Our God is So Big"....
"Jesus in the Boat"...
Then we had drama by the kids (all in Ukrainian), the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Roslan is the King... Roslan is one of the older kids in the camp... Full of potentials!
One of our helper was "Old Story"...
... The story unfolds...
... "WE WILL NOT BOW!!!!!"....
After the message, they sang an Ukrainian kids song...
... And then it was refreshment time!!!
Saving some for home...
Then it was time to say Good Bye...
... With that we conclude our 1st week of Camp. We will surely miss this kids as they have so much potential and are invaluable to God's kingdom.
We got a moment of break last night and today God have put us in another challenge! One that personally has put me in a state of shock. Something to write about in another post.
