The camp is named "Camp of the Good Shepherd" Vasile has been doing Bible clubs with the kids of Mindra for quite a while I'd expect that some might be ready to memorize all or a portion of Psalm 23 with us. In Romanian if they don't know it yet and in English (to give us a fighting chance) if they already do know it in Romanian.Our BiblesEveryone
As you can see on the web site Kristan and I did a little seed research before she left and they will be trying to sprout some bean, grass, brocolli, and radishes.Seeds
dixie cups or egg cartons

There are a lot of good parables on seeds including the mustard seed and the different soils. I don't know how we want to tie it all together but I think this would be fun. There was a book Kristan and I found at Dightman's that she took over already, I believe it was called 'Sanji's seeds'. It had a really good story about integrity in the face of pressure. The book is already there. If we want to use it we should probably visit a Christian book store and read it ahead of time. There are a lot of scriptures that relate to seed so we are not limited here.
Another possibility of linking things together is that I thought it would be a nice idea if we could bring Indian food for Isadore to share some of his heritage. Isadore thought that it might be fun to show many of the different spices (curry etc) in there natural form and refined forms before they were combined into a dish. Isadore has some cool little re-heatable packets that are relatively small and completely sealed. I figure we could probably bring ~55 and have one meal covered.Boilable Curry packets
raw herbs etc

I am trying to come up with a pair of electronics learning boards where the kids can play, creating various circuits. I hope to base the fundumentals off of a flashlight so the kids are somewhat familiar. The wires would all be a unique color and bannana plugs would be used throughout. It would be contructed on plexiglass so nothing is hidden. The kids would have the option of hooking the 2 D cells to a fan (blowing through the glass so no fingers can get into it), the flashlight bulb, two different colored LEDs, an oscillator and a speaker. The oscillator will be an adjustable Shotky feedback loop that closely parallels a tipping bamboo fountain. Bringing a small bamboo fountain and pouring water into it to make it oscillate may illustrate the electronic operation and at a stretch it could introduce a Bible story about how when God fills our cup to overflowing we come alive.2 electronic experiment boards
