Tanea is going to camp!

In February 2014 I met Tanea for the first time. She lives, together with her mother, 2 minutes away from our house. It was wintertime and the snow and cold outside made Tanea stay inside already for months. Tanea was happy to meet us and after a short chat with her mom we understood that Tanea was 34 years old and she was never been able to walk. Her wheelchair was broken and this made it hard for her mother (who has some major health problems too and walks with a stick), to move Tanea around and so often she sat just the whole day in her chair in the same spot.
When we left, we promised to come back and visit them again. A few weeks ago I was able to visit Tanea again and this time we also brought her a new wheelchair. We modified the wheelchair and it was a joy to see how Tanea was sitting in her new chair.

Every year a camp is organised for people with disabilities and this year the camp will be from 25 till 31 may. For one week around 150 people with different disabilities will spend time together, make new friends and most important they will learn more about God. We told Tanea about this camp and she did not even think but said right away: yes I want to go! Please pray with us that Tanea will have a good time as probably in her life she never went to a camp. Pray that she will get to know God and that together with her mother she will enjoy the camp.
