(Irina and Fillip practice their rock painting skills)
On Friday, April 8th, we had some thirty Brothers and Sisters in attendance at our Hand in Hand seminar. We spent the day learning new sports and games, crafts and puppets skills, Bible lessons and songs, as well as getting to know one another.
Despite the fact that many of our volunteers have worked with us before, we still believe that it’s important to gather together throughout the course of the year to remind each other why we work in Belarus. It’s our hope that each and every volunteer that takes the time to travel with us to Belarus will never forget the faces of the children we encounter there.
