One month from today, four VERY good friends from WV will be joining us in our city. They will be doing a variety of things while they are here including two 3-day English camps. English Camp #1 will be held in a rural village about 45 minutes from our mega-city. Please use this blog post to begin thinking about these camps on a daily basis.
This school has approximately 100 sixth graders. English Camp #1 will be held the week after 6th grade graduation. We anticipate 50 children will participate. Please ask that their minds and hearts will be open to hearing and believing HIStory.
English Camp #1 will focus on the TRUE meaning of three American holidays: Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. We will use stories, games, songs, crafts, etc. to introduce these holidays to the students.
We will also use holiday-related vocabulary words, reading comprehension, speaking/listening drills, etc. to reinforce the students' English skills.
Yesterday, our family had the opportunity to visit the school, see the facility, and meet all of the 6th grade students and teachers. They were so excited about the upcoming camp.
We were invited to participate in this camp by a local sister, Nadia. Please remember us (and the WV team) as we make preparations. May we use every word, every activity, every moment to lead these precious children towards a personal relationship with HIM.
Many of you cannot physcially come to assist us on our journey, but ALL of you can join us in thinking about the people on our little island on a daily basis. May these children's lives be changed for eternity!
