the only Christian camp for teenagers in our country
Dear friends,
We are grateful to God that we can faithfully serve Him in the place where we live and that God truly takes care of every need. The camp ministry in Montenegro has been growing in recent years. The number of campers is increasing. This makes us happy and we really see how important this ministry is, and we recognized that it is important to invest in it. The group of teenagers we work with (from 12 to 17 years old) is still the first generation of Christians in our country. We are grateful to God that we can already notice changes in their lives, and we also recognize that some of them are born leaders. For a number of years, we have had teenagers from different cities around the country: Podgorica, Tivat, Cetinje, Budva, Bar, Bigova, Kotor, Nikšić…
The camp for teenagers from 12 to 17 years old is the only Christian camp for teenagers in our country. The accommodation capacity of the facilities where we stay cannot meet our demand, which means that we cannot accommodate a larger number of campers. We had a waiting list – if one cancelled, another could drop in. And we’re so sorry we can’t accommodate everyone.
We need your help!
To solve this problem, we came up with an idea and we want to share it with you.
We are eager to invest in camping equipment to increase the opportunity for more teenagers to attend our camps. This would also reduce the overall cost of the camp in the long term.
Montenegro is mountainous. There is a possibility to use these tents several times during the year, which would significantly contribute to the development of this ministry in the future, and also give us more opportunities to reach children.
Here are some testimonials from campers:
Lukas: I am grateful to God that I am part of this camp for the first time and that I can hear about the Lord Jesus Christ. I am happy that I could pray for the first time that the Lord would help me return to Him and change my life. I am grateful for all the teachers who have shown God’s love, especially now when I have been going through many difficult things in my life. The camp was a real gift for me from God.
Aglaja: It was wonderful for me to serve on the praise team at the teenage camp. When I felt that I could contribute with my gift, then I felt like I was part of a good team. I am happy that God uses these camps so that I can serve Him among my peers, when we are together not just for a few hours, but 5 times 24 hours. I always look forward to the next camp.
Items needed for 20 teenagers:
To buy: 10 tents for two, 20 sleeping bags, 20 inflatable mattresses, 10 tent mats, 10 neon rechargeable tent lamps, pump for mattresses and some other items, we need €5,500.
TOTAL = €5,500
