Introducing Our 2015 Teams!
Every year working with the EEM Youth Camp Program is filled with surprises. Each year is like a new child born—a new child complete with potential, challenges, unique personality, and incredible joy.
The 2014 experience was perhaps the most unique to date. We only had three teams with 26 American team members and 25 Ukrainian team members. Yet, the impact was perhaps the most powerful and meaningful ever. I had never witnessed teams bonding with kids (and adult staff) quicker or more deeply than in 2014.
I do not know what will happen this year. Ukraine has experienced so much pain. It seems like the heartache will never end. Because of this it is all the more important to embody the love of God by returning and serving.
We have a potential for six teams this year. Fifty-seven team members have signed on, including over 20 new applicants. One team is a brand new team and being sponsored by one church! We have another team that participated in 2012 and is now back and ready to go!
Here are the teams:
- Agape (Houston, TX & Las Cruces, NM)
- Burleson (Burleson, TX)
- Imagine (Ft. Worth, TX & Winston-Salem, NC)
- Love Wins (Aurora & Pueblo, CO)
- Mayak (Amarillo, TX)
- Roza (Tyler, TX & West Monroe, LA)
Please keep all of our teams in your prayers. Pray that God will continue to open doors to touch lives through demonstrating the mind of Jesus, teaching biblical character, and distributing Bibles.
Remember, the least you can do is the most you can do: pray!
