Refugee camp was awesome!

We hosted for the first time a refugee family camp here at Porto Astro June 15th to the 18th. Being a pilot program, we had no real idea of what to expect but God knew exactly what He had in mind for this time and it went really well. We hosted ten families, almost 40 people, about 30 kids!! The pictures really tell the story best but is was a great time. The families were able to spend time together away from the city in a restful place together and we were able to love and serve them with the love of Christ. They were all Muslim families so it was a unique opportunity to minister to them. We ran programs for the children, ladies and men where we clearly presented the reason for our hope in Jesus as the Messiah. We did crafts, made bracelets, did rock climbing, swimming, had a magic show, ate and laughed and talked together a lot. They were some long discussions and one family has even been to church the last couple of weeks. Our new friends were sad to leave and said this was the best time ever for them. They had trouble putting into words the gratitude they felt for this incredible fun family time here at Porto Astro. Thank you all so much for your prayers and financial support that made this camp possible. We were all so blessed to be a part of this.
