Maloyaroslavets Crafts 1
















We've had a lot of fun with crafts--tie dye shirts and paper mosaics have been a hit.

Maloyaroslavets Part One




We've had a great time so far at the camp in Maloyaroslavets!

The team after lunch!

the team has all arrived in Moscow

The Triggs attended Moscow Bible Church and came out of service just as the team pulled up from the airport. We are unloading, getting refreshment, lunch and looking forward to connecting with the first camp workers (in Maloyaroslavets) later today.

team delay in Washington

The rest of the team missed their flight connection in Washington--I think it was a flight delay out of Chicago--so they will be arriving in Moscow on Sunday instead of Saturday. This shouldn't be a big problem, but will compress our pre-camp time together to a few hours rather than an overnight in Moscow. :(

Pavel and Wil meeting.

Thursday July 16


In the photo above, we (Lorraine, Philip and Wil) are standing outside the apartment in Moscow. The rest of the team will join us on Saturday.

On Thursday evening, the Triggs and Tokarchuk families enjoyed dinner together at the Takarchuk home just outside Moscow. Pavel Tokarchuk has been our point person in planning the camp outreach and is in charge of the Moscow office. We enjoyed a delicious meal, listened to daughter Nina playing piano, introduced them to "Barrel of Monkeys" and Philip enjoyed a game of chess.
