They used a curriculum that GEM TEFL had created based on the first Narnia Movie – The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The camp was from 5-8pm at night and included a group time with skits and a clip from the movie before the kids headed off to their individual class rooms for activities, games, and fun while learning English. Each kid that attended the camp earned a certificate of completion and a T-shirt. It was a great opportunity for the church we partnered with to get their name out into the community as servants of the community. We pray many seeds were planted for this church.

Please see our next newsletter (coming in May) for more details on how the camp went.  In the meantime, take a look at our photo gallery from the camp.

So please lift Thadd and the team up in prayer as they seek to show Christ through English this week.  We’re very excited to see what God will do.
