2020 presented challenges due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It was not known until the end of June if it would be possible to do anything with the refuge children we normally serve. Because of Corona, all activities with the refugee children had to shut down. This camp would be our first interaction with them since April of 2020. Alongside of our local network, we were able to structure a small camp for a handful of children for one week. The city applied rules to us only allowing 20 people inside a sport hall. With this restriction, we had 5 leaders and opened 15 places for children. The time together was a multi-sport camp introducing a different sport each day including fun games in between.
Each day also included a teaching time with values introduced at the beginning of each day and focused on throughout all drills and games of the day. The value lessons are intertwined with biblical foundations along with personal examples of how we interact with the children and each other. On the last day, an all-around fun day of activities to finish out the camp was enjoyed.
