Early Sunday morning in Riga, August 14

Summer time in Latvia is camp time. Many of our young people spend a large part of their summers at camps. Last week I told about our regional Family Camp. Now we have received pictures from the Bauska Corps Camp earlier this summer:

You can find many more pictures from the Bauska Camp here.

This week we have our Childrens´ Camp in Ainaze on the northwest coast of Latvia, close to the Estonian border. It seems as if they have had a rainy week, but there is a good size sports hall at the camp site, so they can at least have good in-door activities. They will come back from the Camp later today with a report.

Many of our young people are on camp and many other are on vacation. That means a week at the office with time to do a lot of needed office work. We need to have a lot of things done, because next week will be full of activities.

During the week we have had late evening walks down to the river of Daugava in Riga. Looking out over the water we have had our evening prayers severeal evenings during the week.

Now it is early Sunday morning and now we will have a three hours drive to the west coast for the Sunday morning service at Liepaja corps. On our way back to Riga we will have the afternoon meeting in Ilmaja and when we come home, this Sunday has almost passed, and there will be a new week around the corner.

I hope it will be a blessed week for you.
