This page gives a day-by-day picture of the "TWI for
the Children" weekend for children with special needs and their
families at the "House of Peace" at the monastery at Rama
located in the mountains of central Bosnia.
TWI for the
Children annually provided a camp for children with special needs and their
families at the beautiful monastery at Rama. This monastery is
located on a scenic lake high in the mountains of central Bosnia. They
enjoy crafts, songs, swimming, games, walks, and an
opportunity to just enjoy nature.
The area surrounding the monastery is so
peaceful and beautiful. Many of the children or their families had
never been in the mountains. They appreciated greatly the opportunity
to enjoy the peace of mind that nature provides.
The kids and
their families are picked up in Sarajevo early on Saturday
morning by a bus. We
bring them
home late Sunday night, tired but happy. Everyone
enjoys delicious food, wonderful
accommodations, and the chance to relax with friends and enjoy two-days of
great fun.
At
night the sky is so clear that you can see every star and the mountains
are so close that you can almost touch them. The kids sing songs and
go to bed tired, but so happy.
