The children’s work continues but in general nearly all the children are from the families of the believers. However, in Shkoder we have almost 50 children from the believer’s families! This gives us the chance to teach, knowing that the children have a good foundation in bible stories.
We want to teach them important Bible truths…so that when they reach a suitable age they will have a good understanding of the gospel, and in His grace, will accept Christ as their Lord and Saviour.
We emphasise the importance of the children's work being a Bible SCHOOL! Therefore, there is homework and memory verses to be learnt. We also emphasise the importance of the role of the parents helping the children - so each week part of the homework involves parent participation.
The teenage class is quite small here in Shkoder and also in Koplik, but we are pleased at the attendance and what they have learnt in the previous years. We have been done a catechis
m with them and they have learnt more than 50 questions and answers on God, the Bible, sin, salvation and new life in Christ.
We pray that God will bless the work we do with the teenagers at the weekend camps. We believe that much good has been done throughout the world by Camp work, and we want to slowly build up a Youth Camp for Albanian teenagers.
Please pray that God in His mercy would use our efforts with the children and teenagers to bring salvation and new life to many in this age group.
