Today I got up at 5am , wide awake ready for the day. I've been praying about this event for months and it is the day we will start. I hope things will go smoothly and the students to enjoy it and get to hear the gospel either directly or by experiencing God's love. As I led the students to their seat after they registered, I said "hello how are you and what's your name" to one student. She looked intimidated for a while. Another was very shy. As I looked in her eyes, I was moved and almost in tears (already). I was so touched to be able to be here to minister to these kids. They need God's love and I hope I can get to share it with them this week. I also felt I am getting over my comfort zone because we had a lot of bonding games , in the hot humid sun. We were sweating, chanting our team slogan, and really having fun. I'm not that kind of person but I actually had a great time with the students. There are 6 groups, and our group is Group 1. I 'm proud of our group- they were so shy at first, but there is a huge difference with their bonding at the end of the day. Praise God!!!
More to share soon...

ReplyDeleteThat's good to hear. It shows that you really have a heart for these children and I think that God will really use you and work through you to show His love to the children there :)
