And what a great time we all had!
3 days, 2 nights with 30+ youth, 10+ youth leaders and 5+ clergy and soon-to-be clergy and theological students, and us – that’s me and my lovely visitors from the UK, Harriet and her dad Mike….
The 2014 Diocese of Taiwan Youth Camp was held in the Little Ding-Dong Science Park (great name eh?!) in Hsinchu County (great views of Hsinchu City and the sea) last week from July 9-11….. and we were there ~YES!
3 days of non-stop action, including paint-balling, abseiling, high-rope walking, snow-sliding, barbecue, games, fun, worship and many thought-provoking discussions and challenges, kind of all on the theme of ‘Knowing Yourself, Knowing God’…
Harriet being there gave everyone a chance to practice their English, and hey, she had a great time too – so did Mike ~ thanks to everyone who bent over backwards to welcome the 3 of us!
Most of the young people on the camp were from non-Christian families ~ so a great outreach and a challenge for all! Pray for all these young people ~ and the leaders, there’s still a whole summer of children’s camps ahead ~ YES!
Diocese of Taiwan looks a wonderful place to be young in! Really important work and I will pray for the young people and their families.
