Kid's Camp: 20-22 October

Hi all,

We're all planning for the Shan Kid's Camp (day camp) that will happen from 20-22 October.
The theme for the camp is Friend.

It's going to be held at the Suan Luang village and we have invited the kids from the Suan Luang, Nam Jam and the new village.

Some things that you can pray for as we approach the last few days towards the camp.

1) Committee members planning for the camp - that we will prepare our individual parts, and for unity amongst us.
2) Finances. Thank God for providing the finances that we have at hand. Pray that we will use them wisely.
3) The 4 leaders who will be leading the 4 groups during the camp. Pray that they will be a good example to the kids.
4) Attendance. We are expecting about 100+ kids. Pray that their parents will allow them to come, and that they will invite their friends to the camp as well.
5) Safety. Pray that God will keep everyone safe during the 3 days.
6) Weather. Pray that God will grant good weather. It's the end of the wet season, but it's been raining on some days still.
7) Logistics. A van has been arranged to pick up the kids from the villages to Suan Luang. Pray that the van will be ready and that the kids will arrive safely back and forth.
8) Unity. As the kids come from different villages and different tribes (there are some Ahka amongst the Shan kids), that they will come together in unity.
9) Most importantly, pray for God's Word to take root in the hearts of the children. Many are non-believers. Pray that through the Bible stories, they will realise that Jesus is their best friend in their life.
