The Heartwarming Moments from our Summer of Hope outreach

The summer seemed to slip away in the blink of an eye, and now we can definitely feel the crispness of fall settling in. It’s amazing how quickly the seasons change!

As we transition into this new chapter, we’re thrilled to share some incredible reports about our Summer of Hope camps. God was at work in the lives of the children who participated, and it’s heartwarming to see the impact we could make.

Each day was filled with joy, laughter, and spiritual growth. We started the day with Bible devotional time that set a meaningful tone, followed by some exciting games that brought everyone together.

The meals were delicious and nourishing, fueling us for our adventures, including hiking through the gorgeous countryside, where the beauty of nature was truly a blessing.

One of the most memorable moments of the camp was our dedicated fire time. Gathered around the warmth of the flames, the children had the chance to share their stories, offer prayers, and connect on a deeper level. It was a safe space to express their feelings, and we could see how much it meant to them.

Those moments were truly special, as the kids gathered around the warmth of the fire to share stories, offer prayers, and support one another. For many of these children, especially those from war-torn Ukraine, the camp provided a much-needed escape from the chaos and fear of their everyday lives. It was a time for healing and peace, a rare opportunity to focus on their hopes and dreams, away from the sounds of rockets and sirens.

It was a blessing to watch them open up and find peace in each other’s company. It’s clear that this Summer of Hope was more than just a camp; it was a transformative experience that touched their hearts and reminded us all of the power of God’s Love, faith, and community.

It was a blessing to witness God’s love in their hearts during this transformative summer.

Thank you for being part of our journey!
