English Camp # 2

Two weeks from tomorrow, our first English Camp will begin. From June 22 to July 18, it will be NON-STOP 24/7 for our family and our volunteer helpers. English Camp # 2 will be held in a densely populated section of our mega-city. Please use this blog post to begin thinking about EC #2 on a daily basis.EC #2 will be held at this 50 year old clubhouse. All the students from the local elementary school will be invited, so we will be teaching multiple ages. We anticipate 50 to 100 children in attendance.
Like EC #1, this camp will also focus on the TRUE meaning of three American holidays: Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. We plan to use a rotation system with classes devoted to HIStory, to the historical customs of the holidays, to crafts, and to recreation.
Our space at this location will be much more limited, but we will have absolute freedom to share as much of HIStory as we possibly can. Also, our national helpers will be able to do daily and weekly follow-up with these children for years to come.
This clubhouse has about 75 people that regularly attend each week. They also share fellowship meals and events throughout the week together.
We were invited to participate in this camp by Leader Tim. Please remember all of our national brothers and sisters as they help us in translation, snacks, record keeping, etc. We expect great things from Him as we attempt great things for Him! Please join us in remembering these two English Camps on a daily basis.
