All BTW ESL teams have arrived at their destinations. At the current time the camp directors have not been able to post any blogs.

Until this issue is resolved I will be posting new information as it comes from our contact in China.

Keep lifting up the teams.

In a week four out of the six BTW ESL teams leave for China. Teachers have prepared lessons, skits, games, songs, and other activities to teach the English language and to share a small part of our lives with the Chinese students and helpers.

Continue to read the updated blogs as the camp directors will be posting from China telling about the happenings in each camp.

All but two of the camp sites have changed. Make sure to read the latest email sent by Chris to find out more.

If you have any questions email your camp director for more information.
