On each side of the river stood the tree of life. . . . And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. (Rev 22:2)

email statement

On Aug 8, 2015 a team of missionaries from Elevate Church in Monroe Michigan will travel to Chisinau, Moldova to work with the New Hope Moldova team to share the gospel in a summer camp experience with orphans and transition home residents fighting human traficing in Eastern Europe. The team will share our experiences and how God is changing our lives on this blog.

Traveling to Moldova was. . .different. Airplanes with old-school propellers are still a thing. Who knew.
But we arrived safely. And nothing went according to the plans we thought would be; but it has worked out beautifully. The campers are all so energetic and excited to try every new thing and have absorbed everything offered to them.

The campers are the most resourceful people I have ever seen- games from the simplest tools, competitions made with the most unusual yet brilliant items. The resilience of the kids is overwhelming.



The work that Pastor Oleg and his wife, Marina, and their family and staff have poured into them is evident in every part of the camp.



Thank you to all of the people who have supported this mission with their prayers, finances, and supplies; you all are the reason why we have been able to present the campers with opportunities they may have not had available otherwise and hopefully give them a glimpse of what it can mean to follow Christ.
Thank you. Thank you, thank you.
