This camp is on about 75 acres on the coast of the Gulf of Finland about 20 minutes north of the town of Johvi. The camp used to be a Pioneer Camp in Soviet times where kids learned about communism and atheism. Currently the camp is under major reconstruction, yet they still have summer camps out there each summer attracting more that 200 youth at a time!
The Guest House can hold 30 members of a mission team in a private area with 2-3 per room. There is a big church that they are renovating on the inside and their large worship center overlooks the Gulf of Finland. It has a beach, a wooden basketball court, a soccer field, an outside stage, and a swimming pool that they hope one day that they will be able to repair.
Near the rest of the camp buildings they have an area set aside for Scouts. The multicolored “A” framed buildings in the pictures is that Scout Camp.
This property is owned by the church in Johvi and is a great location for a camp. Folks are in the USA now to raise support for the reconstruction of this camp. Pastor Artur told me that this camp is the only one of its kind in Estonia. There is a lot of potential for ministry at this camp for any mission teams!
