[:en]This year, the Challenge camp took place in Sp\u0101re boarding school from 2 to 8 July. The 19 participants <\/strong>along with the assistants and team members made up a multicultural company of around 70 people. Since this was already the 10th camp, the birthday atmosphere<\/strong> gave a good reason to look back on what God has done throughout the decade. At the same time, we could see and rejoice over His works in this year\u2019s camp. <\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe week included all the parts Challenge is known and loved for: interesting lectures, fun sports activities and workshops, the opportunity to get a haircut<\/strong>, visit a physiotherapist<\/strong> and consult a orthosis & prothesis specialist<\/strong> for free and of course the Extreme Day. On the request of last year\u2019s participants, we heard lectures<\/strong> on the reasons behind having no friends, whether it is possible to be single and happy, the evidence of Jesus\u2019 resurrection and God\u2019s calling for our lives. The workshops<\/strong> gave everybody a chance to try out line dancing<\/strong>, learn more about etiquette<\/strong> and make a lovely photo frame<\/strong> as a keepsake. In addition, we travelled to Brazil<\/strong> with the help of our imaginations and some Brazilian friends, were encouraged to push our limits in sports and enjoyed a concert<\/strong> by the popular Latvian band My Radiant You. <\/p>\n

But what made the camp probably most of all was the warm, open atmosphere<\/strong> where everybody was welcomed, no matter the nationality or abilities. Our time together had space for encouraging and challenging conversations that defied physical and language barriers, as well as just relaxing and enjoying each other\u2019s company and the Latvian countryside. The Extreme Day with its raft ride<\/strong> also gave a chance for just that. After the first challenge of getting on the raft from a very steep river bank \u2013wheelchairs and all \u2013, we were rewarded with a beautiful ride on the Gauja river in nice summer weather. But that was not it \u2013 after coming on shore again we had a four-kilometre hike on gravel and sand before reaching our final destination, the Rak\u0161i zoo where we met and petted camels, alpacas and llamas<\/strong>. A campfire<\/strong> with lots of good food and testimonies about God\u2019s works was the perfect ending to the day full of joy, excitement and surprising ourselves. <\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe camp had a good prejudice-shattering effect<\/strong> on people both with and without disabilities. One of the earlier participants testified about how the first Challenge camp he attended radically changed his view on Christians and led him to trusting his life to Jesus. Another participant shared her surprise over the realisation that in this camp, people actually care when they ask you how you are doing. One participant\u2019s mother admitted that before the camp, she did not imagine people with disabilities could have such joy in their lives and sometimes even seem happier than people without. Another lady who took part for the first time said she had never experienced such genuine care in any church. Perhaps this is the challenge we should take to our home churches with us \u2013 how to really notice eveybody\u2019s needs and respond to them in God\u2019s love in our everyday life. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIn Matthew 18:20<\/strong>, Jesus promised that \u201ewhere two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.\u201c <\/em>Of the 70 of us, those who knew God beforehand did just that \u2013 gathered in His name to do our best and let Him do the rest. But when a number of imperfect people come together with the sincere wish to do God\u2019s will, He takes over. During the week, five people decided to join the family<\/strong> and give their lives to Jesus. Let us pray that the ripple effects of what God started in the camp would continue in the lives of everyone involved, letting His will be done and His kingdom come. <\/p>\n

Laagrin\u00e4dalas oli olemas k\u00f5ik see, mille poolest V\u00e4ljakutset tuntakse ning hinnatakse: m\u00f5tlemapanevad loengud, enese proovilepanek ning uue \u00f5ppimine sportm\u00e4ngudes ja t\u00f6\u00f6tubades, v\u00f5imalus tasuta k\u00e4ia juuksuri<\/strong> juures ja f\u00fcsioterapeudi ning ortooside ja proteeside<\/strong> spetsialisti konsultatsioonil ning loomulikult ekstreemp\u00e4ev. Eelmise aasta osalejate soovil kuulasime loenguid<\/strong> sellest, mis v\u00f5ib olla s\u00f5prade v\u00e4hesuse taga ning kas vallalisena on v\u00f5imalik olla \u00f5nnelik; Jeesuse \u00fclest\u00f5usmise t\u00f5enditest ja viimaks Jumala kutsumusest iga\u00fche elus. T\u00f6\u00f6tubades<\/strong> \u00f5ppisime line-tantsu<\/strong>, saime teada p\u00f5nevat etiketi<\/strong> kohta ning kaunistasime oma k\u00e4ega m\u00e4lestuseks pildiraami<\/strong>. K\u00f5igele lisaks reisisime oma kujutlusv\u00f5ime ning paari brasiillasest k\u00fclalise abiga Brasiiliasse<\/strong>, saime julgustust enese proovilepanekuks spordis<\/strong> ning v\u00f5isime nautida populaarse L\u00e4ti b\u00e4ndi My Radiant You kontserti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Kuid laagri olulisim tunnusjoon oli soe ning avatud \u00f5hkkond<\/strong>, kus iga\u00fcks oli teretulnud. Aega ja ruumi oli nii \u00fcksteise julgustamiseks keele- ning muid barj\u00e4\u00e4re trotsivates vestlustes kui ka lihtsalt l\u00f5\u00f5gastumiseks, nautides \u00fcksteise seltskonda ning L\u00e4ti suve. Ka ekstreemp\u00e4eva parves\u00f5it<\/strong> andis just sellise v\u00f5imaluse. Kui olime \u00fcletanud esimese katsumuse ning kogu seltskond oli koos ratastoolidega j\u00e4rsust kaldast alla parvele j\u00f5udnud, saime nautida imekaunist s\u00f5itu m\u00f6\u00f6da Gauja j\u00f5ge. Kuid see polnud k\u00f5ik \u2013 taas kuivale maale j\u00f5udnuna matkasime neli kilomeetrit liival ja kruusal, et j\u00f5uda Rak\u0161i loomaparki<\/strong>, kus tegime \u00fcsna l\u00e4hedalt tutvust laamade, alpakade ning kaamelitega<\/strong>.

Veel \u00fcks osalistest jagas oma r\u00f5\u00f5msat \u00fcllatust selle \u00fcle, et k\u00fcsimuse \u201eKuidas sul l\u00e4heb?\u201c taga on laagris k\u00fcsija siiras huvi. \u00dche osaleja ema tunnistas, et polnud enne laagrit kohanud niiv\u00f5rd elur\u00f5\u00f5msaid puudega inimesi, kes teinekord tervetest inimestest \u00f5nnelikumadki on. \u00dcks esmakordseist osalejaist \u00fctles, et pole taolist s\u00fcgavat hoolimist kohanud \u00fcheski koguduses.

\nMatteuse 18:20<\/strong> t\u00f5otab Jeesus: \u201eKus kaks v\u00f5i kolm on minu nimel koos, seal olen mina nende keskel.\u201c<\/em> Need meie seast, kes juba enne laagrit Jumalat tundsid, tulid kokku Jeesuse nimel, andsid endast parima ning lasid Jumalal edasi tegutseda. Ning kui hulk ebat\u00e4iuslikke inimesi koguneb siira sooviga teha Jumala tahet, teeb Tema asju, mida meie ettegi ei oska kujutada. N\u00e4dala jooksul otsustasid viis inimest saada Jumala perekonna liikmeks ning anda enda elud Jeesusele. Palvetagem, et Jumala alustatu v\u00f5iks iga laagrilise elus kasvada ning uusi v\u00f5susid ajada, et Tema riik tuleks ning Tema tahtmine s\u00fcnniks.
