Setting up camps and outreaches

Things continue to go well with the PCYM in Madagascar. This morning the students were grappling with practical tasks like what sort of information to put into a brochure (advertising your camp) and what sort of activities to include in the daily schedule of a camp that's designed to disciple young people and mobilise them for missions. Tomorrow we'll be looking at how to make a budget and work out what the camp should cost, how to write quiet time materials for young people, and other aspects of prayer and planning for a youth camp and outreach.
Now that I'm feeling a little better, I've been able to spend more time talking and praying with individual students and staff; I'm encouraged about that, as this was one of the original goals I had for these weeks in Madagascar.
