COX'S BAZAR, Bangladesh – Bangladesh is bracing for a massive humanitarian crisis because of a lack of food, sanitation, medicines and even basic housing following the exodus of as many as 350,000 Rohingya Muslims from Myanmar, fleeing violence in which at least 1,000 were killed in just two weeks.

We can practise our faith in a variety of ways. While some people may pray before they go to bed or meditate for an hour each day, others may choose to attend a religious summer camp.

I did the latter every summer for 11 years. The final year, I was a counsellor.

Attending the camp not only allowed me to make friends and learn about myself, it also allowed me to develop a stronger relationship with God.
