Novi Sad after camp

After camp we stayed with Serbian families in Novi Sad to do some follow up with students. It was a great time to get to know the Serbian culture a bit more closely and spend some time with students outside of camp.

We had a couple days planned to do things with students. Usually at a follow up a few will come and that is about it. Well we had the entire camp of students at follow up except 3. Go God!
The first evening was a chat club. All the kids came and we talked about camp and looked at pictures and movies from camp. Did the camp dance AGAIN along with the Cha-Cha slide.



The next day we took them to the beach in Novi Sad. They swam in the Danube…I took pictures and the guys played a game of soccer. It was perfect weather for it.



Then on Wednesday night we had a church service…all the kids came. During the service Victoria got up and shared her testimony. It was beautiful.


After the service we all hung around and watched a movie. I was really encouraged to see all of the students there.


I was able to have some great conversations with Victoria and her sister during those few days in Novi Sad. We got to hang out a lot at the planned follow up events and even during the days I walked around the city with them.


Please continue to pray for the students in Novi Sad and that they will continue to follow the Lord. Being a Christian is far from easy in Serbia. Most people are not open to it and think we are a cult. These students need prayer.
