Youth Camp

Well these last few week have been very hectic, with a full house (Humberto, Esther and Baruj have been staying with us since the beginning of Feb, and Ian arrived mid-Feb), with the run up to the camp and then Mark and Ian have been doing mission in the jungle these last few days, so we have lots to update on the blog which we will try to do in this next week.

Firstly though - the camp for 15-25 year olds, (which in reality was 13-25yr olds!) which was last weekend and it went really well. We had 20 young people from the church we are working with in San Gabriel, including a few outsiders - friends of the young people or church contacts.
We had lots of fun and games, in and out of the swimming pool...

(Yes - that's Mark on the left underneath!)And some great worship and talks too - looking at the theme of 'Who am I?' Our prayer was that the young people would get to know each other and God better, and that seems to be the encouraging testimonies coming from the young people who are very thankful for the camp.

Ministry time included a time when everyone received hugs!
