|PIC1|Church persecution in Eastern Europe causes problems for Christians attempting to reach out with the Good News of Jesus in practical ways. Yet they continue their difficult ministry whilst acknowledging that God is in control.
Following a recent arson attack in the Ukraine, Pastor Peter Bevz of the Baptist Church in Chernigov said, "Last Monday the entrance door of our House of Prayer at the mission was burnt by someone at night. 'They have cast fire into thy sanctuary...,'"
"This week is very busy with preparations for the children's camp. Some members of our team leave tomorrow to set up the camp. We praise God for Siloam's willingness to support the camp again this year."

UK Director Richard Norton said, "In spite of persecution in different parts of Eastern Europe, we are grateful that children's camps are still able to operate. They are a vital way to provide a secure yet relaxed environment.
"Also, the spiritual ethos encourages children and young people to choose a Christian lifestyle over options such as drug abuse and child prostitution."
