This summer, a camp opens in a Yaroslavl village at an Orthodox community, where teenagers and families with special needs children live together for several weeks. Everyday life here includes prayers and services, chores and saunas, hikes and campfire songs. Teenagers take a break from their devices and learn to care for others, special needs children experience socializing outside the family, and their mothers are able to share the burden of care for the first time in their lives. Shared work and simple forms of happiness form a shared life, erasing the boundaries between "strong" and "weak," between those who help and those in need. All that remains is life: challenging, but full of love.
