Ywam Kitgum Uganda Destiny Kids Club Holiday Camp

The three-day Destiny Kids Club Holiday Camp at YWAM Kitgum, Uganda, ran earlier this month with over 80 children aged 3-12.

Throughout the camp, they:

• Memorized impactful verses
• Enjoyed exciting games and activities
• Delighted in entertaining performances

They were very thankful for:

• The children’s eagerness to learn and grow

As the children return to school, they continue to pray for:

• The lessons learned to remain in their hearts
