Please Pray for "Refresh Camp" - May 2~3

"Refresh Camp" is a rare opportunity for believers from various evangelical churches in Aomori to meet one another and gather together for joint worship and fellowship.  Without camps like these, many Christians in local churches would have no experiential knowledge of the body of Christ beyond their own tiny congregations.  Refresh Camp is a source of courage, comfort, spiritual growth and vision for both church members and pastors' (or missionaries'!) families who often feel isolated and alone in the world (because they are isolated and almost alone where they live).  It can also be a place where "seekers" are finally led to faith in Christ.  Having the camp during "Golden Week" (see below) increases the chances of whole families being able to attend together.
