MI District LWML / MOST (Mission Opportunities Short Term)
Ministries Team 906 Arrives Home Safely From Poland
MI
District LWML / MOST (Mission Opportunities Short Term) Ministries Team
906 arrived safely back home after two weeks of serving on a mission
trip to Poland this summer. Teaching English as a Second Language
(ESL) was so much fun. We had a great time at this Lutheran church camp
with our 62 students, ages 10 to 14, and they certainly were better at
English after being with them continuously for 10 days. We had nine
classes of Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced levels. There were
nineteen people on our team and we
were able to show and tell them about the love of Jesus as we worked
with them in our classes, recreation, music, drama and crafts and also
the evening activities. They gave us quite a sendoff when we left
camp. There weren't any dry eyes in saying goodbye. Our team loved
Poland. We were in the southern part of the country near the Czech
Republic border in a tourist ski resort area of Jawornik Wisla. The
scenery was beautiful. In our free time we enjoyed walks and watching
the farmers do their haying. Our tour days were spent in Krakow after
finishing camp. Thank you so much for your prayers and support of our
team. Nine of our women received financial assistance from a Michigan
District LWML mission grant (your Mites at work.) If you're interested
in having one of our team members come to your zone or society to share
our stories and pictures, please contact one of them or the Team
Liaison, Barbara Hoffmeier bhoffmeier@comcast.net
