God worked in wonderful ways this week and now, we are headed home…

It is difficult to believe just how quickly two weeks of camps zoomed by. We are also in awe of how quickly God moves in, around, and through the camps to open hearts and minds to the Gospel. This is especially true considering the cultural context of Albania and the very strong Muslim influences. Every team member has been struck by the open curiosity and desire among the students to better understand who God is in Christ Jesus.

We are also profoundly thankful for you in your support and prayers throughout this mission trip and are beginning to recognize just how much God has been moving in our lives to grow and mature our own walks of faith. It will take weeks and months to process all we have heard and seen. This is an experience we will not soon forget!

Enjoy the photos from these last few days in Albania!

Peshkopi Teen Life Retreat

Team Meals and Final Goodbyes

Here’s how you can stay involved and what you can do!

Pray Continuously: Set aside time each day to pray for the mission trip. Pray for the team’s safe return to the States and health. Pray for the people we were serving, and for the work God is doing in, around, and through the people of Kastriot, Peshkopi and the Dibër region. Pray especially for the more remote village children and their families, who joined us. We hope many were positively impacted by the camps. Pray for people to grow in curiosity toward Jesus and His Good News.
