Slovenia performing arts camp



One of our teammates Katarina Bordner is a very gifted woman in so many ways. But music is her great passion. She's had a dream for years now to host a camp that would reach out to students through performing arts. Well this year the Lord lined up all the pieces and I wish you could have been there to see it happen!

29 students spent a week at the coast of Slovenia learning dance moves, receiving vocal coaching and rehearsing drama productions. A team of very qualified Americans including a choreographer who works for Disneyland among others; joined together with talented believing Slovenes and produced an outreach performance that was so vital and alive!

One of the things that was repeated was the unity that was produced among the group was so deep and personal. This group bonded together in a unique way. We're asking the Lord in what way we can use this as we have used English camps in order to reach this generation for Christ through this new medium.

There have been just a few times in our 8 years here that I have thought to myself, Wow! We've been waiting for this to happen! This was one of those times! We're so grateful for Katka and the way she uses her gifts for God's glory, for the team of Americans and Slovenes who worked together at great cost, and for this new door that has opened!
