Hi Friends!
Today was our final day of VBS. We had to adjust a bit to accommodate the whole school but I think if you ask the team, it was much better with everyone. We preformed all our skits and made cross necklaces. We can't wait to post pictures for you all.
To back track a bit (since there was no blog post yesterday), yesterday after lunch, we joined the local women's group for a Bible study which Pastor led. Soccer was he game of choice for the after class activity so we all went up to the ball field. While Cathy didn't play soccer, she answered a variety of questions for the kids from Minnesota crops and weather, to all our families and jobs. The kids are fascinated with learning about our culture.
After lunch today, the team split up. The men headed up to the library and finished covering up books and the women headed to town and bought some supplies for our upcoming home visits. We will be taking things like rice, salt, sugar, flour, oil, and a bag. Lorna says this will provide meals for 12 homes that otherwise might not have a thing to eat.
After supper we joined the high school for a religion class. Pastor Meeker and Pastor Chase has a chance to speak to the kids about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Tomorrow we will join the kids for church and then attend a service in the community. Pastor Chase will have the chance to preach for both services. Our afternoon will be spent with the kids since they have the day off from school.
As always, thank you for your prayers for our safety and work here. God is in this place and we are humbled to be apart of it, if even for a short time.
