    The church was transformed to enhance the “Narnia” experience. This “wardrobe” was built at the front entrance and all the coats were hung just inside. Each morning as we walked into the main room we could see the lamppost, lots of snow and Mr. Tumnis’ house.  The story progressed throughout the week and Spring came to Narnia – the leaves turned green and light began to come in the windows.  The campers were divided into three groups based on ability. The Narnia theme was carried out in class, during campfire activities and during evening small group discussions. Each day a separate idea was introduced (faith, sin, sacrifice, repentance, and acceptance). The after-noons were filled with games, sports activities, and work-shops. Twenty six campers from Tilza and other nearby places attended.          

    During the first evening campfire, one participants said, “I have no idea what I was doing here. I’m sure I was listening.”
