This document outlines details for a congregational mission trip from Ireland to Romania in July 2013. The trip will involve building two new chalets at a children's camp and conference center in Valea Draganului, and helping lead two camps for up to 180 children per week. The center is used by Protestant churches to hold camps and conferences for children from orphanages, Sunday schools, and street children. Building small housing units would help address authorities' concerns about tents and better accommodate more children each summer.
