The highlight of the month of July has definitely been our English Day camp here in Lviv. The AFLC Student Missions team that came to help with the camp was wonderful!!! They were such a mature group with such a heart for ministry! It was almost hard to believe that some of the students were only 15 years old. Everyone who met this group (people who met them in church on Sunday, the kids at camp, etc) very much enjoyed both the students and the leaders. Here is the group. From left to right - guys: Sam N., Sam M. (adult leader), Zach, Caleb, Jon (adult). From left to right - girls: Rachel, Hannah, Ruth (adult leader), Katy, Megan.
We started each day with songs and Bible story introduction. We were VERY impressed with how accurately the students presented the Bible teaching. We were amazed at how much Bible they had memorized as preparation for the camp! 
Singing one of the campers’ favorite songs – Our God is an Awesome God 
Repeating the Bible Story to each other in groups of two or three. 
Yura was one of the neighborhood kids who came to our camp “from the street”. He very much enjoyed the camp and seemed to remember a lot from what was taught. 
Crafts in the afternoon. 
Games... Ultimate Frisbee was one of the favorites. 
One day the team had a chance to get a tour of Lviv. Lviv is a beautiful and historical city and it was fascinating for the students to see that some of the buildings here in Lviv are older than the United States! (Lviv is first mentioned in historical records in the year 1256! It was founded by Prince Danylo Halytskyi, who named it in honor of his son Lev. )
One of Lviv’s oldest buildings is the Armenian Cathedral that started as a small Armenian church built in the years 1363–1370.
A good-bye picture taken already after the camp. It was a sad moment and nobody wanted to say good-bye. Many of the kids keep asking us (for example on Facebook :) ) when there will again be a camp like this.
We want to thank the AFLC Student Missions team for making this camp not only possible but also a big blessing for all!
