Week Number... I'm not really sure any more :)

Another week at the most wonderful camp in Poland! This week is the last English camp of the summer and sadly my last full week of camp. I'm excited about seeing family and friends back home, sleeping in my bed, having my own room, and car, but I'm not ready to leave the family and friends I have here. It won't be easy saying "goodbye" next week. I'm not just leaving people that I worked with, but people who have become my family. God has allowed me to build relationships that aren't just fluff and they're genuine, where hopes, dreams, problems, and worries have all been shared. One of my favorite memories will be the evenings that some of us girl interns would hang out and pray together. It will also be one of the things I miss the most. Ok, I'm going stop with the sentimental mush now, otherwise I might start to tear up. Let's get back to what's going on this week.

I'm an assistant and English teacher again, the only differences are I have 9-10 year old boys this week, who are sooooo precious, loud, but precious, and I'm teaching 16 kiddos by myself, which isn't bad since we get lesson plans at the beginning of each day. We don't have an American group here this week, so Hannah and Brooke have done most of planning classes and Molly and I have helped more with planning the games for the afternoon. Also, all of us interns have been asked to speak at either the morning or evening meetings. I'll be speaking Friday evening about the kids going home, since it is the night before they leave.

Also this week most of the counselors that have been at camp this summer are working at the Lodz Kontact, a church outreach project. The purpose of Kontact is to bulid relationships in the hope of starting a church plant in Lodz in the future. I may have already told you all this, but Lodz is the second largest city in Poland with the population of 1 millions people, only 600 of those people are born again believers. There are a few small churches in Lodz, but many people are still lost and without the true hope Jesus Christ. There is a great need for believers to come to Poland and share who Christ really is.

Thank you all for your prayers! Please keep praying for the kids, staff, and camps throughout the rest of the summer and for the people of Poland.

I love you all very much and will see you soon!
