Journey Overview
Church groups or individuals are invited to partner and join the local church in organizing and lead a seven days camp for children or teens. Camps are organized using skills like teaching English, drama, music, or games. Around 40 people are attending each camp. Local Roma/Gypsy Church is organizing annual children or teen camp. The role of the camp is to offer the possibility for local children or teens to hear the Good News in a protected and safe place.
What To Expect
Your group or team will come and join the camp with local church adults and their church teens or children. The team will prepare the pre-camp and help organizing the camp by leading Bible studies and creative activities. We encourage each person to use their gifts and abilities in unique ways to build relationships and see vibrant communities of Jesus followers forming in Roma/Gypsy churches of Romania.
