May the Peace of the Lord come with you and may His joy fill your hearts. Thank God that we have this opportunity to serve our Lord with you dear brothers and sisters.

Thank you for your prayers for us and for our family.

Praise the Lord that I could work together with other brothers from the mission of the PAI in Camp Candela, which took place in Boyan.

I could be the leader of one room over guys who were 17-18 years old. Every morning we prayed with them and read the Bible and meditated on the book of Jacob. Over the course of the week I helped with the translation into Russian for those children who did not know Romanian in the group where Brother Pavel taught lectures.

On the first day of the evening of worship, I had a sermon word for the entire camp on the theme “The Word of God” according to the book of Jacob. Helped my wife wherever needed. My wife Alla was the coordinator of this camp. She organized a good team of 26 leaders. In advance, over the course of three months, she prepared these young people so that they knew their responsibilities as leaders ... so that they knew who should behave and how and what they should be responsible for. The leaders in advance distributed the children in rooms ... and by age ... then Alla in advance compiled lists of children ... in advance discussed how to spend worship evenings ... what topics of the day will be ... what scenes ... films ... contests. .. all this was prepared in advance .... there was a lot of work ... but with God's help we could do everything and prepare .... Alla made a lot of changes in the camp program .... well, here are a couple of examples: first- I put this prayer chas before physical exercises .... the second strictly set the desceplen so that no one would break and so that the lead We watched this who violates the first order and then sent home ... so that boys to girls would not go into rooms and girls to boys .... to respect each other .... to respect the leaders of teachers .... what would participated in all plans of the camp .... and what is surprising this year, children and young people were very obedient ... they spoke strictly this year, but cool ...

Then, in the pool, the boys were separated from the girls. At first the girls bathed, and then the boys .... and everything was fine.

 They liked the evening of worship the most ... they organized a young worship group, Naomi participated in it - she sang and played on the sensitizer ... Ruth she sang ... Tanya Pascar she also sang ... Andrei he played the guitar .. Arkady he played he sang on the guitar ... Venya Paskar played the violin .... Abigael Grishka she also sang ... Vitalik and Nesvoi played the stentizer .... such a group of worship of bawning prepared songs and could glorify God and make the whole camp happy.

Then, every evening, leaders with their rooms for children and young people knew in advance what scenes to prepare and contests on the topic of the day. After this was a sermon every evening, brothers from the PAI mission went to preach on the topic of the day ... also Naomi and Ruth spent the evening news of the camp day where they prepared photos and video slides for the whole camp .... Also, Sasha Pastushak also had a very big role in this camp he spent the whole day and every day he shot videos and photos, then he mantled it and showed it to the whole camp ... everyone was drunk with these slides photos and videos ... there was also daily cleaning of rooms Alla went to the place with Sasha and checked the order of their rooms. Sasha photo rafiroval room and the evening show. but there was not only order, but also some surprises for Aunt Alla .... and they put balls in a room cleaner and more beautiful ... everyone liked it too ... we awarded them with the sweets that you sent a little earlier .. .. thank you for them .... also we had a Sport instructor Yanyk is a very good and responsible brother. He spent every day sports after the pool .. there were very interesting games and new ones. Thank you for helping to buy sports equipment for the camp .... and we also brought sports equipment from our Church which was not enough .... we also brought equipment from our church for the music group because it was impossible to use very old from Nesvoi which brought the equipment .... Alla also took the scenery in order to stage the scene and drink there the name of the camp and the theme of the camp .... Candela ... Life for Christ ....

After the evening worship, the evenings were very eventful so that children and young people would not just play the Belt as they did until now every evening before those years. But we divided them into three groups, one went to the Evening Mini Bonfire where brother Andrei Petihachny led guitar and fellowship .... others went to Christian Films ... where Alla and I could comment on these films later .... and the third went to board games or community in the circle led Yanyk .... and so it was three in the evening until then all did not participate in three groups. And on the fourth evening we divided them into four groups as they were divided for sports and they played a night quest ... two young girls, that is, the leaders thought this game up very interestingly ... and then each one found his treasure and this treasure was the Bible. .

On the fifth day in the evening there was a big caster and a special program was prepared for the entire camp. Our new son, Eugene, was the husband of our Naemini.

We are very tired of everything, but God helped us all was very interesting and useful this year ... All young and teenagers and children said it was strictly, but very interesting and cool .... and they repented a lot and wrote a lot more .. ... but .....

Thank you and God. That they could hold this camp.

Pray for the children who know Christ and their parents prevent them from going to church and approaching God.
