Winter Camp
Fussball competitors needed!

Kyiv, Ukraine – This Winter almost 100 kids and counselors are hoping to attend the annual Mercy Projects Winter Camp.

This event is held the first week of January in partnership with local Ukrainian churches.  Mercy Projects Ukraine director Irina Skrypnik stated:

“Our kids always hope for Americans and foreigners to attend the winter camp. They enjoy so much getting to know the team members and hearing their stories. One of our counselors even married a boy from the UK! So I think you can say the Winter Camp has been a big success!”

December 31 – January 8, 2019 Winter Camp Ukraine. Call Zach for details at Mercy Projects in California 951.696.5244 or go to www.mercyprojects.org.

Jeff Thompson

In 1978 at the age of 21, Jeff moved to Vienna, Austria to smuggle bibles behind the Iron Curtain. His book, “Leaving The American Sector” available from www.mercyprojects.org chronicles many stories from that time period. He leads Mercy Projects in Murrieta, CA assisting vulnerable children and families in Ukraine, Kosovo, and Armenia. He enjoys espresso from around the world, and this gives him the energy to tell his grandchildren stories of being banned from Russia twice in his lifetime. Dan Wooding and Jeff have known each other for many years.
