A handful of students from Trevecca Nazarene University in Tennessee, along with Chaplain Tim Green and assistant Heather Daughtrey, arrived in Gdansk in early May to help develop the work of the church there. The team worked with area children and youth on a variety of community activities including Kid’s club and English as a Second Language (ESL) classes. The group was led by the pastoral team of Gdansk; Dawid and Simona Berdowski (pictured Left to right: Simona, Daniel and Dawid).
Daughtrey commented, “It was not until I spent this time in Poland that I realized what a tragic and violent history the Polish people have had. They have stood up under centuries of oppression, violence, upheaval, and still continue to be a gracious people.”
Sandwiched between many community service hours, were a trip to the beach on the Baltic Sea, as well as a tour of the Auschwitz prison camp near Krakow.
