SPRENGS CAMP IN ISRAEL - 2008 |
“HOPE” Intercultural Center was established a year and a half ago with the purpose of reaching the unbelievers of different ethnic groups. Through community service (ESL, Russian, Hebrew classes), social and cultural activities (picnics, concerts), ladies’ circle, individual meetings, seminars, Bible studies, etc. we establish friendly relationships, which allows to witness about the Messiah and His Salvation. Our vision is to become a global mission center operating “in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (Acts, 1:8). |

This winter camp project was suggested by the brothers, missionaries, and pastors of four local churches in Israel. In their opinion, the problem is that, as in many countries, experiencing immigration and return to the historic motherland, children lack sufficient attention on the part of their parents and adults in the new life environment. During the settlement period and daily provision of families with the necessary financial means and payment for the housing, there is no money left for recreation. Children (and also the devil) take advantage of this situation. Kids plunge into different indecencies and sin (sexual relationships, drugs, etc.). We are aware that there is one camp in the center of the country, but it can’t accept all willing to have a rest. That is why a camp in the South of the country is a good idea! The camp is supposed to accommodate 35-40 kids and will be based in Eilat on the Red Sea shore. Warm beach, trips to the historic places of ancient Israel’s passing through the Sinai desert followed by the Bible studies will contribute to children’s deep understanding of the truths of the Gospel and their application in their lives. The evening time of group worship of God in singing and prayer will create a good atmosphere for kids’ spiritual development and good mood for further communication with their peers and instructors. It is going to be a mission camp. The local pastors and missionaries will put effort to bring unbelieving kids from unbelieving families. It will be their first time in such a camp and their first encounter with the new principles in life. We are asking you to pray for them and for the organization of this camp in general. As we know, not all families can afford to pay for their kid’s camp. According to the local brothers, a 10-day stay in the camp for a kid will cost 1,000.00, including food, transportation, visiting historic places, etc. It is about $ 250-300, which coincides with our prices. At present, we are preparing ourselves and other instructors to minister to Israeli kids. We are also asking everybody reading these lines to be participants in evangelizing Jewish children. Your reasonable financial help will ensure the solution to the problem, which, otherwise, is unsolvable for many families and children in Israel. |
