One highlight from my time with YWAM Constanta is working with the girls group. I love being there in the summer with them, we get to take them on different excursions and adventures together. We meet with them once a week and can have between 6-10 girls each time. It’s a time to really invest into their lives, showing them the love of Jesus.

Even though I don’t work there full time, the girls still remember me and get excited when they see me each trip. Some remember my name, others remember me as the one who takes photos.

One of the weeks we took them to a large local park, City Park. There are multiple play grounds there with all kinds of slides, swings and climbing structures. The best was when all the girls could slide together on the enormous slide, filled with so much laughter. Me and some of the other workers couldn’t stop laughing as we watched them giggling as they slid down.

Another week we took them to the local mini zoo. Some of them had been before, but they were still filled with so much joy and laughter, looking at all the animals and creatures.

I think my favorite week was when we went near the beach and I led the group time sharing about photography. I shared about my experience with photography and how we can always find beautiful things around us, in all of our surroundings. We also divided up in small groups and went on a photo scavenger hunt, which they loved and had so much fun with.
