Saturday, July 16

I woke and helped everyone leave the camp and cleaned up the grounds to prepare for the next group coming through (kids 6-11).  The kitchen staff bought me a camp t-shirt as they appreciated my care for them during the week.  I gave a few people my family picture (including Goran, my roommate).  I packed my own gear and Kiki and I drove a few girls to Mitrovica where Goran and they all live.  I was going to stay in Mitrovica until Danko came later that evening with his family, and then we would all stay at Pr. Mika's home (Goran's uncle) and Danko would preach the next morning at the church.  We had a great afternoon.  Goran and I went out at one point and I grabbed a few things from the store, including some Serbian chocolate (Yo-Yo).  It's a chocolate mixed with Kellogg's Honey Smacks cereal.  Fantastic.  We then went back to the house where a group of Americans were also staying for the week as they are attending and serving at the English camp.  They come from Good Shepherd church in Portland, OR.  The group consisted of 6 teenagers turning seniors in high school (16-17) and three young adults (one married couple).  Goran and I left the house again to go to the church to see a friend of his who was having a birthday.  That friend was one of the fathers of one of the girls at the teen camp we had been at, and so those girls we brought home came to the church too.  After some time, we returned home where we saw Danko, and where the rest of the group was thinking about going for a walk.  Danko's family and I stayed behind.  His wife and kids went to bed, and he and I talked for a bit.  Then I headed to bed and slept until the rest of the group returned, and then it took a little while to get back to sleep.  It was a great day.
