ROYAL RANGERS CAMP CZECH STYLE October 26-31st

Many may be familiar with Royal Rangers. There is a Royal Ranger Camp near Brno, Czech Republic. It is very primitive and spartan. But what it lacks in amenities, it makes up for in enthusiasm. We had not worked in Brno for many years and have few contacts in that city (it is about 5 hours from Liberec). Three churches with Royal Ranger outposts scheduled their third annual English Camp for October 26-31st. Then they discovered that their native speaker guests could not come. Through mutual Christian friends, we were asked to participate. It was a joy to meet a whole new set of Christians and minister together to a group of youth ranging in ages from 12 -25. In the pictures you can see an illustrated sermon on the armor of God including medieval and modern military examples and one of the many English classes where the kids were challenged to write as many body parts as they could think of in colorful letters. And as an added blessing, another Christian friend knew a Christian family who had a house in the small village where the camp was located who graciously allowed us to stay in their home. So we had a bed and a toilet at night instead of pillows on a cement floor and an outhouse. God is SO GOOD.
