As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:10-11

Exchange Camp - DAY7 - Sunday Service & Baptism of Sofia

7th day at the 2021 English Sport Camp Exchange Budrio.

This morning we had our Sunday Service for the campers' families of the 2021 English Sport Camp Exchange Budrio and during the service we celebrates the Baptism of Sofia, one of our first campers in Budrio.

 

We had a great turnout of kids and parents, including many of Sofia’s university friends and some of the older campers from previous years! We had the visit of the mayor of Budrio who thanked us for our work & presence in the community!

 

Stefano preached from Psalm 32, challenging parents & kids to sing to Jesus, God’s true King who gives his life for his people, justifying and transforming their lives to live his gospel to the nations!

Sofia gave such a powerful and moving testimony from Ephesians 2:8 on how Jesus saved her by grace to live her life fully for Him.

We are so thankful to the Lord for the great time we had engaging with families and kids during the picnic lunch we were able to have at the park. Many of them were very happy to receive a New Testament and to be informed about our Courses and the MySpace Club & Seekers Bible Study, we run during the year!
