IN ADDITION TO THE VIOLIN CLASSES, THIS SPECIAL CAMP INCLUDED LODGING, MEALS, SPORT ACTIVITIES, AND VARIOUS RECREATIONAL FUN AND GAMES. THE PURPOSE OF THIS CAMP WAS TO GIVE A PICTURE OF A UNITED PAKISTAN THROUGH THE EYES OF A CHILD WITH CHRIST AT THE CENTER, AS HE IS THE ONLY WAY FOR THEM TO LIVE IN PEACE WITH ONE ANOTHER.
