People of Many Backgrounds

By Claudette Jeri

My experience with Oshkosh 2019 has been so adventurous making new bonds and meeting people for around the world. My favorite part is trading pins.

If there is one thing I’ve learnt so far is that everyone is different and people come from different backgrounds, countries. Learning more about their cultures is real and they have different missions which makes Oshkosh so unique and exciting.

Being different is okay and that is why we are chosen because we each have different reasons and mission.

Looking and researching about Oshkosh I was amazed to see that they are 52,000 people and it is so amazing. How many people want to know more about God and the most surprising part is that the tickets sold out but being here is great. As our pastor said, “We didn’t choose God, God chose us.” Which basically feel more special and more loved.

Going to the BMX and seeing the story of David and the story of the camporee itself is just amazing and inspiring.
