Day 3 on our trip means Day 2 of VBS. As with any mission trip, flexibility has been the key to success in sharing Christ with this community. Praying that God would stretch the resources we brought, we stepped back onto a dusty hilltop with bags of toys, games, coloring sheets and candy in an attempt to bring God’s love and grace to life…and we were successful! The team rallied together to reach out with ultimate frisbee, relay games, a great bible story, and lots of relationship building with our new friends. The hardest part, as always, is leaving at the end of the day…and when you’ve just made 125 friends, leaving can be heartbreaking. Our prayers will remain with the children, that they may grow strong and be healthy physically and spiritually until we are able to see them again.
