Family Camp

With one goal in mind... 'turn the hearts of the parents to the children and the hearts of the children to the parents'  (Malachi 4:6) Options facilitated a camp for parents and their teens.


.  








Starting with a group game... that promoted laughter then divided sessions










The parents learned practical skills to build their child's self esteem, how to hold a family meeting and how to solve a family problem (with family involvement).


Teens spent both of their sessions in a Bible Study called "Re-Discovering Your Parents."  Starting with God's plan for families... the break-down or families... to 'acknowledging my part' in my families issues.


Three facilitated activities allowed families to experience solving problems, working together as a team, and learning to trust each other











































Once again, our International Volunteers do 'child-care' while their parents and elder siblings are working out relationships.  











As 'camp commander' Nathan was in charge of keeping time and order, which allowed for resting in the shade with Barnabas!
