This week at camp we had the privilege of having older kids from Ogra, the local gypsy village where three of the other interns have been doing literacy camps all summer. Also, the team from my home church, Wedgwood, was here this week, which was such an incredible blessing and encouragement!

Julia, an intern from last year, was also here this week with the Wedgwood team. Her and I worked together this week, and we had such a blast loving on the kids on our team! It was so great to get to explain to them the Gospel, as many of them have never heard of it, or if they had heard of it, they do not remember anything about it. Though they looked at us with confused faces, it was so great to explain to the kids that there is joy in salvation, and joy in God! My prayer for them all is that seeds might have been planted, and that they may grow into men and women of God!

A highlight of the week was on Friday when we gave the kids their gift bags. Though each group of kids are given gift bags each week, the incredible joy these kids showed when they opened their bags showed me that it was even more special to them. As Julia and I sat there watching them open their gifts in pure joy, it seemed like Christmas. Thank you to all of you who supported the Wedgwood team in coming this week and making this week possible with these kids! It was such a good week, and I know it will not return void!
Another highlight this week was Tuesday night when we interns did a Spa night with the kids from Casa Rebeca and Casa Ana Nadia (the LOC houses). There were four stations that all the girls rotated to and we did pedicures, manicures, hair, and face masks for them. It was such a fun time!!

Week 6 of camp was such an incredible encouragement, and I am so thankful for the Wedgwood team! We are about to enter our last week of camp, and I am so excited for it, yet nervous that my time here in Romania is coming to an end. Pray for strength and renewed energy for this week. Pray for the precious kids we are going to meet this week, that they will be receptive to the Gospel and God's love for them!!!
