"As it is written, He [the benevolent person] scatters abroad; He gives to the poor; His deeds of justice and goodness and kindness and benevolence will go on and endure forever."

international missions | South African Summer Camp
South African Summer Camp, December 2009
As a result of your generosity we were able to assist in sponsoring many deserving WCG children from Moruleng tent church, as well as several other kids who could not afford the full fees.
We were also able to purchase portable basketball posts and hoops, as Bekker School did not have these facilities, and basketball is always very popular amongst the kids. Camp was a huge success! It ran for a full 9 days from December 13 - 22, 2009. 81 teenagers (campers), 40 pre-teens (VBS) and 27 young adults (staff trainees) participated in swimming, soccer, basketball, softball, volleyball, obstacle course, hiking, ballroom dancing, rock climbing, abseiling, handcrafts, Christian living and life skills classes. We were assisted by 40 dedicated volunteer staff members. Each morning the day was started with praise and worship, and a devotional, and each evening we closed in worshipping God who made it all possible. As always, many expressed their thanks for life changing experience that helped them to develop on a personal level as well as being led into a closer relationship with God).
