English camp 2010

Every year our family looks forward to English camp and the teams that come from the states to help us host this week for our Slovene students! It is a real highlight!
This year Blake and Becca went to one camp as campers with their youth group. They talked non stop about each person and what fun or funny things they said and did. Then they came home for one night and turned around and went right back to the same place and joined our whole family helping in putting on the Kranj camp.
It was a joy to work with pastor Drago and the student leaders there Tilen and Matic. This is a shot of Tilen who every night did a skit as a Russian at English camp. SO FUNNY! Same night I took this shot he also shared the story of Joseph in a 1st person narrative as Joseph's brother Judah. He is an amazing communicator and did a great job!
Blake is learning guitar and this was his first camp to play alongside Josh when we sang camp songs like "One Day Soon". He's really quick at catching on to the songs Josh teaches him.
10 year old Kendra had her hands full as she watched out for her brother Luke and Caleb Wynn. She's a great playmate and really enjoyed the boys and made it a lot more fun for them while their parents were busy!
The first day Becca felt a bit overwhelmed going from one camp to another but she quickly struck up a friendship with Kaja whose sister goes to our church. Rebecca really enjoyed Kaja and sharing with her about who Jesus is. I think she was special to Kaja too since Kaja just added her to her friends on Facebook and listed Becca as her sister!
I love camp! Such sweet friendship happen there!

I love it--a Russian @ an Slovene English camp. Almost as good as Forest Gump @ the 1st camp...
Loved seeing you again--and seeing the kiddos and seeing the house, and seeing God work, and, and, and.
And BTW, I recognize that t-shirt Kendra has on:)

What a beautiful picture of Bekah and Kaja. It's no surprise that she made new friends, what a special lady!
