Maksym's Winter Camp Experience
Maksym, a 13-year-old from Sumy, attended Camp ‘Start Up’ and quickly became one of the most active campers. He enthusiastically joined all the daily activities and worked hard to win the camp-wide games.
During the camp, Maksym discovered a deeper connection with God. He began praying more, building friendships with new people, and reading the Bible regularly. Watching other boys play the guitar and piano inspired him, and he now dreams of learning to play like them. Maksym believes that through prayer, God will help him develop these musical skills.
The camp also encouraged Maksym to share his faith with others. He plans to invite his classmates to his church’s teen meetings and the soccer club, motivated to bring them closer to God.
Before the fall of the communist regime in the USSR, many Christian families suffered greatly. They faced torture, persecution, and even death. Yet, amidst their struggles, they found comfort and strength through prayer. Millions of believers around the world joined in prayer, interceding for USSR Christians and asking for God's help during these difficult times.
As the communist system crumbled, Christians were eager to build a new life. The corruption from the old regime made real change hard to achieve. In these uncertain times, prayer became more than a ritual — it was a lifeline. Believers prayed for the church to be restored, for Christian values, and for moral living. With strong faith, they continued to pray, knowing that God's help was crucial in changing society.
Since its inception in 1990, Kingdom Ventures Inc. (KVI) has been driven by the belief in the power of prayer. Every Christian camp that emerged in the 1990s was not just a result of human effort but thanks to the prayers of many. The Lord's Prayer, taught and prayed daily in every Christian camp, was the foundation for many stories of change. This prayer, passed down through generations, kept the hope of many people alive and was instrumental in fostering spiritual growth.
KVI continues to emphasize prayer as a key part of its mission. The earnest prayers of KVI staff, volunteers, camp leaders, and campers have been fostering spiritual growth and lasting change across Eastern Europe. Prayer remains a cornerstone, guiding and sustaining the ministry's efforts to empower church-based biblical Christian camps and build strong Christian communities.
