WE SERVE AND REACH NEEDY CHILDREN with God’s Love
God’s heart for the world and missions!
Throughout the year our team is making contact with needy kids. They are invited to
attend our ‘extreme sports camp’ that includes the hope of the Gospel, where they are further discipled in a more serious,
24/7 environment.
In addition, LIFE SKILLS lessons based on the Bible are taught filled with practical
aspects of everyday life, and situations they will face once they ‘age out’. Camp has a
lasting effect even after it ends, and some of our volunteers have been able to help
some children get adopted, provide medical help, and advocate for other needs.
• Trauma care.
• We are learning how to begin the healing process and become an effective mentor for
children who come from hard places and difficult situations.
• Childhood grief and loss.
• We are learning how to walk someone through the grief and loss process, including
the different stages of grief and loss.
• We are discovering various types of therapy that can help children heal!
• Childhood depression, anxiety, fear.
• These emotional challenges can be the result of a traumatic event in a child’s past.
We are helping them to overcome it.
• We are training our volunteers what their role as mentors looks like, and how they can
make a difference in a child’s life.
• The heart of the needy child, the role of the counselor.
• We are learning the different ways hurting children process their past, how they might
react, and how we can counsel them cross-culturally!
• The Bible and counseling.
• We study what God’s word says about counselors, how we can apply truths from
scripture to a child’s past, and help guide them to His truth.
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations...
MATHEW 28:19
This is how we all can follow the commandment
of Jesus to make disciples.
So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.
Camp Karabin is team of 7 full-time workers and many volunteers who serve
underprivileged children in Ukraine. It all began with a dream to fulfill God's commandment
to take care of those in need. The Karabin team invests in its volunteers who are from all
over Ukraine. Throughout the year we arrange training sessions and Bible study with them,
focusing on disciple-making and on fulfilling the Great Commission of Jesus. The Karabin
ministry is holistic. Summer camp is just a first step to build relationships with campers.
Discipleship is not about a one-time event but rather an ongoing process. Our long term
goal is real life transformation. This year we baptized four campers and this is how we
measure impact. When we do camp our near term objective is to spend fun time with them,
give them unforgettable positive impressions, help them see the beauty of life, and
experience connection with God on a daily basis. That’s why we are very serious about our
volunteers, whom we want to represent Jesus and be an example. We want them to be
mature in their faith and to experience the love of God every single day so that they can
share God’s love naturally with campers. When camp is over, there is a strategy in place for
our volunteers to continue working with those kids and impact their lives.
Throughout the year our team is looking for kids and families who need help. Kids
identified in this way are invited to attend our Summer Bible Camps, where they are
further discipled in a more serious, 24/7 environment. In addition, LIFE SKILLS lessons
based on the Bible are taught, filled with practical aspects of everyday life and what they
will face once they ‘age out’ . Camp has a lasting effect even after it ends, and some of
our volunteers have been able to help some children get adopted, provide medical help,
and advocate for other needs.
Every year we raise funds to cover the costs for these campers at Karabin so they can
attend at no charge.
Annually at Christmas time we lead a mission trip with our campers to the West side of Ukraine.
We come alongside local ‘People of Peace’ who help us locate needy families. Why?
We follow God’s will and command to take care of others.
We are trying to change our culture and teach our community to share and give, even if they do not have a lot to give.
We build relationships with our campers and their families who help us with donations or presents for underprivileged kids.
We teach our campers to appreciate what they have, to be thankful and to care for those who around them.
Trips always make our campers really excited!
Campers experience growth from the inside out through a once in a lifetime
experience.
Objectives:
To facilitate life transformation and long-lasting growth by getting campers outside their
poverty existence.
To allow campers to be in a perfect environment for a life-changing experience.
To extend campers maximum potential.
To broaden the minds of campers by opening them to new people, places and ideas.
Dates for the summer 2019
June 6th - July 6 th
Life transformation is our target
Discipleship is not about one
time event but rather ongoing process.
Karabin team invests in volunteers
It was an unforgettable experience to serve these precious kids at Karabin camp. I saw
real fruit and life transformation. It’s a great place to grow spiritually and become a
mature and aware Christian.
I am blessed to witness how God works with our campers. Karabin camp is a place for
everyone. We create credibility and demonstrate love. It is so important nowadays for
Christians to go outside the walls of their church and become closer in community to
their neighbors, to those who are abandoned. We are called to share love, faith and
hope.
Thankful to God for a wonderful camp experience at Karabin. Amazing opportunity to
built relationship with kids. I like the idea that Karabin is not just a one-time event but it
is a life-to-life transformation process. I see how kids become more confident and
refreshed and ready for another year at their boarding schools or orphanages. We
follow up discipling them during the entire year. Karabin is a family.
You can contribute your time, skills and knowledge through volunteering with Karabin
campers. This is an opportunity to create a positive impact and be a significant force for
achieving life transformation and spiritual growth. Make a difference in the lives of
many!

hope.

My dream is to see Camp Karabin as a platform where new generations can find their
potential, develop comprehensively and form eternal values in their lives.
My prayer request is to have physical and spiritual health, to have a close relationship
with God daily. Please pray for Karabin to be a top place for young people where we
build friendship with them and impact them, where we help families raise their kids with
the right values.

I dream to generate new ideas for our camp, for the world to see Karabin as an
innovative and recognizable camp. I dream to have amazing and dedicated coaches in
our camp. The Karabin team is planning to implement new projects throughout the year.
We brainstorm a lot and I pray we will be able to start all these projects.
My prayer request is to always be creative enough and for my personal life for my future
