Extreme Makeover- H2O

At the end of August a group of us from club decided to set out to the camp purchased by Josiah Venture in southern Poland to help with their extreme makeover. The center was purchased in 2006 and is being made ready for summer camps, conferences, leadership training programs, and retreats. This place will be amazing and will be used to impact thousands in Poland so we jumped on board to be a part of it. God miraculously provided the money for our transportation and food at the camp (are we surprised?!) For three days we worked, sweated, bled, and invested our energy by cutting down trees, chipping away tile, picking up rocks, painting fences, mowing grass, and preparing the area for the landscapers who were coming the next week. In the afternoons we kayaked and swam and got to know each other better. Greg shared daily from the "Purpose Driven Life" and challenged our youth to think about the reason for living! Since we were there the soccer field has been completed with a sprinkler system and grass and an amphitheater has been built.

Not only that but many of our youth came to know Christ that next weekend through the drama "Heaven's Gates and Hell's Flames". God is so good how he works... I look back over the summer and can now see the foundation He's been laying for our youth to come to Him. RiverTree Church with English, King's Kids Holland with dance, testimonies, and prayer, movie night with The Passion, this H2O camp, Heaven's Gates, and now many have given their hearts to Christ! What an exciting summer full of the work of God! Thank you friends for being a part of this journey in Poland. It wouldn't be possible without you. Please keep in prayer for the new believers: that they may grow in the wisdom and knowledge of our Lord and they won't be ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.
