Thirty young people from Rivne and Zdolbuniv, believers and unbelievers, were studying the character of our great God for three days. They studied about His rule, His holiness, and His mercy.<\/p>\n<p>The camp had its own currency. In the end of the day, those who worked hard could participate in the auction and buy something tasty and useful.<\/p>\n<p>The day program was related to the sermon topics. Games, Christian movies, and contests were directed to mastering the sermon\u2019s topics. For example, the forbidden market of vanity was organized during quiet hours of the day of holiness. In the evening, the market participants were fined for disobeying the camp schedule.<\/p>\n<p>God has blessed us with a friendly atmosphere, which helped us to serve each other and helped the camp services.<\/p>\n<p>The well-prepared building kept us from getting cold, and the Zdolbuniv kitchen kept us full and satisfied. The local guards, as usual, were the witnesses of the \u201cother life\u201d and listeners of God\u2019s Word.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the weather was not for skiing, the guys found a way to have fun in wet snow.<\/p>\n<p>It was pleasant to receive positive responses in the end and desires to return back during the winter period of next year. Here is one such response:<\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cI have just been fed, and before that I could take a nap. My flesh enjoys it. However, this is just a little part that influences my positive response\u2026 I had a great opportunity to listen to the Word of Truth about God\u2019s mercy, and about how all circumstances that happen in our lives are for our betterment. But the biggest point of God\u2019s kindness to us is Jesus Christ. Camp was filled with interesting games, which I wanted to participate in\u201d (Sergej).<\/i><\/p>\n<p align=\"right\"><i>With gratefulness to those who prayed and God,<\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><i>Nikolaj\u00a0Nikitin and Artem Prystupa<\/i><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4851\" src=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/themes\/reco\/assets\/images\/transparent.gif\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/03-13-300x131.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"131\" srcset=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/03-13-300x131.jpg 300w, http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/03-13-100x44.jpg 100w, http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/03-13.jpg 456w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4849\" src=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/themes\/reco\/assets\/images\/transparent.gif\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/02-16.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"194\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/02-16.jpg 194w, http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/02-16-76x100.jpg 76w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 194px) 100vw, 194px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4847\" src=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/themes\/reco\/assets\/images\/transparent.gif\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/01-18-300x173.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"173\" srcset=\"http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/01-18-300x173.jpg 300w, http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/01-18-100x58.jpg 100w, http:\/\/hopetopeople.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/01-18.jpg 331w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By God\u2019s mercy, first Christian winter youth camp took place in Zalissja, Rivne region.
