Summer Camp Week One

Summer Camp July 14 - 19 with Peter Iliyn

Peter was born in Paraguay, South America, to parents who came from Russia.  Raised to speak the Russian language, Peter has been able to cross barriers throughout the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe with his ministry.  Trained as an electrical engineer, Peter joined Youth With A Mission in 1976. Peter married Luba in November, 1980 and they became the Salem YWAM base leaders in 1982.  Having a very strong call to Russia and the Slavic world, Peter and Luba traveled as missionary evangelists and teachers throughout Russia and Eastern Europe during the next years.  As of today, they have traveled to over 80 countries of the world. Peter's background also includes God's sovereign intervention in his family, going back to his grandfather, who was miraculously led out of Russia by God after the Bolsheviks seized power in the 1917 revolution.  

Currently Peter is the North American Director for Youth With A Mission. Peter and his wife Luba have four children and live in Jefferson, Oregon

Summer Camp Week Two
"How to Have Great Faith"

Summer Camp July 21 - 26 with Gary Radmacher

Gary Radmacher has been active in Christian ministry for over 40 years. A native Oregonian, he has recently returned to his home state, after serving as a pastor and professor the last 35 years in Hawaii and Washington. Gary has had opportunity to travel for ministry in Ghana, Nigeria, Honduras, and India. He would say that his greatest accomplishment has been to be a husband and father. He is grateful for the three grown children that God entrusted to him and his wife, Barby, and for the seven grandchildren they are enjoying. The greatest passion of his life is discovering an accurate understanding of God's word and endeavoring to communicate it in a clear and relevant manner. He tries his best to stay active, and to live a healthy lifestyle, busying himself with computers, water skiing, volleyball, fishing, golf, and watching football.

Gary's topic for the week will be "How to Have Great Faith". Who hasn't wished that he or she could have more faith? The answer is not complex, but neither is the solution easy. If you really want it you can have it. We'll examine the scriptures for the simple steps you must take, so you can traverse the difficult path to great faith. If you feel inadequate for this task, then you qualify!
