Shushi, Nagorno-Karabakh - When the first warm days come, everyone
starts gazing longingly out of the windows at God's beauty unfolding
before our eyes. Each year, it also means thousands of children in
Armenia and Karabakh know the time for summer camp is drawing near.
The camping missions of the Armenian Missionary Association of America
(AMAA) not only enrich the children's lives spiritually and physically,
but also provide relief from the hot summer sun. Campers enjoy leisure
time in a wholesome environment created especially for them while
they learn about the love of God. Camp ministries continue to be one
of the most effective methods by which we bring our children to God.
These children need your help. A donation of $70 will help a child
be able to attend an overnight camp this summer and a donation of
$40 will help a child attend a day camp for a week.
The AMAA operates two overnight camps in Armenia and Karabagh Camp
Sheen Shoghig in Hankavan, Armenia and Camp Bedrosian in Shushi,
Karabagh - and 46 day camps in other areas throughout the homeland.
Campers come from impoverished families so the AMAA cannot charge
them any fees. That is why we rely on your generosity.
For more information about the Summer Camps and how you can help
support the camps, you may call the AMAA at 201.265.2607 or go to
the AMAA website at www.amaa.org.
Naregatsi Center of Shushi hosts children's camp On July 9, the Aram
Manukian Children's Camp opened its doors once again at Naregatsi Art
Institute's Shoushi Center. A festive concert was organized within
which the center's choir and theatre groups participated with their
"Magic Flower" performance. The participants were warmly welcomed
by NAI founder, Nareg Hartounian, and the organizers of the camp,
Aida and Hayduk Shamlian.
The first camp was organized 8 years ago in 2004 and around 30 children
participated. This year, 80 participants intended to participate but
their numbers have now increased to 200 children ranging from 5 to
12 years of age. They are divided into 4 age groups which bare the
names of Western Armenian counties.
According to schedule, each day begins at 10am in the morning and
ends at 5pm. During that time, children recite national and patriotic
commandments, learn handicraft, play games, watch movies, and so on.
Breakfast and dinner are served.
The Aram Manukian Children's Camp has become a yearly tradition and
evokes great enthusiasm among children and parents alike. For more
