Breakthrough camp at the end of June. Needless to

say, we had a great, fun time, but most importantly,
Ap’id n Ap’
we learnt listening and relating skills. The camp was
titled “James 1:19” where it was taught that we’re
iop’idion Ap’idion Ap’idiion Ap’idion Ap’id
to be “quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to
Ap’iid A
become angry. Rev. Joe Kok gave us 2 sessions of
workshops that taught us how to listen and ask the
’id on Ap’idion Ap’id
right questions. Many of the core leaders reflected
Ap’id on Ap’idion Ap’idion Ap’idion Ap’i
that they now know more about not only relating
Ap’idion Ap’idion Ap’idion Ap Ap’idio
to young people, but to parents and adults. Apart
p’idion
from this, we had some really deep sharing and
Ap’idion nA
extensive planning time.
