That's right five days left of the camp! Go to my Notes in Facebook or Blog to read the whole story.

Five days to go!!!

That's right five days left of the camp!
In previous years the camps were only nine or ten days, now with a 15
day camp the difference is clearly viable!
Much deeper relationships are being formed between group leaders and children.
Natasha had a group of girls, and after two days more girls camp. For
a couple of days the went on with the big group till they desired to
split between older and younger girls. Natasha took the older and her
helper the young ones.
Please pray for her and her girls. Galia (16), Zhenya (14) and Julia (14).
If been working in and around the house and joining the boys whenever
I have free time.
One of the boys, Dima, had trouble with the leader (Pasha who was my
helper in previous camps.)
Now Dima is going to be my helper in the handy man work.
The will give us much better opportunity to fellowship.
Pray for Dima!
Pray for our protection, please.
Pray the traffic cops will not pull me over looking for bribes. Last
time we where here we couldn't drive to town without them pulling us
over. Praise the Lord for the old Russian car we are driving. Not só
viable!!!
I'll add a photo of the car when I have normal internet.
For those that remember Pasha from my previous letters. He has just
finished school and will start studying in September. Vlad, another of
the young guys I've been working with hasn't been able to come. He was
called up to serve in the far east somewhere.
Please pray for these two boys.
Thank you for your prayers, messages and financial support.
Blessings
Albert & Natasha

Camp almost half way... All is well, but please keep on praying. Today again at the dentist. This time just brought somebody. Glad I don't have to sit in the chair!

The camp is on... Very busy Thanks for all the messages and prayers!

Been to Russian dentist. Aaaahhh!!! Not so bad. Or should I say "sh-not shhou bjet" Mouth still dead!

At Russian dentist today!!! Ahhhh!!!

Camps to start soon.

End of last week we took Natasha's parents car, loaded it with clothes
(to be handed out to the needy) and drove to the village where the
camps are to be. Bolshoi Ozero is the name of the village, population.
200 - 300!
It is here that Ernst built a house and on the lake near by where for
the last 8 years they have been having camps.
In a summer there can be 250 - 300 kids going through these camps
getting to hear about Jesus and the amazing thing He has done for us.
This year there will be no camps!
We will just take a bunch of children (20) into the house and have an
informal camp.
The problem is with politics in the church... and I don't want to even
elaborate on that! Mud slinging and threats has now made that these
kids will not have the opportunity to hear about Him.
So we focus on what we have.
On Saturday we will receive about 20 children into the house and they
will visit us for 15 days. .
Please pray for the children! Pray for the workers.
Pray for the orphans that had to be turned back as we were not allowed
to receive them.
Natasha is very challenged by seeing the politics and how some of the
people behave. Please pray for her!
We both got the flu and were in bed for most of yesterday. Pray for our health!
We drove to the big city to speak to some of the foreign sponsors
today. Have about 7hour drive back tonight. Please pray for safety.
Thank the Lord for the car!!! Major blessing!
He kept us safe from accidents as well as corrupt traffic cops wanting
bribes! Praise the Lord for that!!!
Praise the Lord that we are able to take at least 20 kids!
The meeting with the sponsors was very good as well. Praise the Lord for that!
Praise the Lord that we can be in Siberia!!!

Thank you for all your prayers and support!
Blessings
Albert & Natasha
