Summer Journeys

So, you wonder what the Hashes really do during the summer months? We tell you often that we organize English Camps all over Poland. We host American teams in Krakow (and a few in our home) and also then visit all the camps once they get going. We want to connect with the Polish and American teams as well as help in encouraging and helping with problems along the way. This year, our travels looked like the following:

Hashes (Dan and Laura) First Missionary Journey:

June 26-July 3


From Krakow we went to Germany to speak for a Cadence ministry and to celebrate our 17 years of marriage in Dresden! We then visited camps in Wrocław, Swinoujscie, Ostróda, Żywiec, Burkowina Tatrzańska and back to Krakow for debrief.

Hashes (Dan and Jacob) Second Missionary Journey:

July 6-22


This time Dan and Jacob took off after Krakow and welcoming new teams, to an Art Festival in Lubiąz, and then to English Camps in Nowy Tomysł and Koszalin. They snuck in a day and a half father-son time on the beach! And, finished up with debriefing in Poznan.

Hashes (Dan, Laura and Jacob) Third Missionary Journey:

July 24-Aug 4



We're still in the "middle" of this journey. The final camp is beginning today in Wisła. We were in Krakow once again to welcome the team from Indianapolis and now Jacob is at the camp. Dan and I will visit it later this week and then end up the summer with the team in Krakow for debriefing.

Besides all of this, we have the joy of leading a wonderful intern team this summer. They are in and out of our home between camps and are serving well! They will fly out on August 7. Here they are at one camp... as they are "normally" and as they are when they serve!
