We're off to Prague!!!

Well, we are about to head out of Zakościele and make our way to Warsaw to catch the midnight train to the Czech Republic. This will be a fun adventure for us before camps start up.

Today we had another all staff meeting with PROem. Today was a day of biblical reminders as to how to hold yourself, how to act and how to represent Christ during the camps. We also discussed how to build each other up and be true to one another treating them with respect, love, kindness and honor. One of the other topics of discussion was kids and their cell phones. In Poland it is against the law to take away the cell phone of a kid and PROem doesn't want the kids to be on their phone or MP3 player during messages or quiet time, so they were thinking of ways to discourage them from having them. There are nice benefits to the kids having their cell phones but there are also disadvatages. I don't think there was a definite answer as to how this can be accomplished. One thing I just thought of this minute is that you could take the battery away and allow them to still have their cell phone...

After lunch we unloaded another truck full of food, this time it was about 8 tons of food that would be held in storage at the camp. We also helped stock some of the refrigerators of masło i ser (butter and cheese). It was a really great experience and looking back I wish I had the flip camera to get a video shot of the assembly line. Just something to have to remember.

Well we are off to Warsaw in 30 minutes. We appreciate your prayers and look forward to sharing a little bit of Prague with you when we get back!
