Today was the first day of VBS. We started the morning out with some one on one with kids. It was amazing to see the kids connect with the adults. The morning start came to about 80 but by the end of the day we were at about 250. They were such great kids. They loved the skit with the robot. They really enjoyed singing! They were very active in the activities and crafts. It was a great day.
This afternoon we visited one of the Bishop's house. It was a beautiful drive out into the lush countryside. We were greated by the family and congregation. We were greated on the way up the hill by his father that is 105 years old. Such a sweet face. We were blessed to go into his mud hut and pray. We didn't get to stay long because the storm was coming in and it was going to make it impossible to get out of the mud roads.
In the afternoon Bishop Liston (our host) sat around with the team worshipping together.
Tomorrow we are on the second day of VBS and are teaching on sin. Later in the day we are going to the soap stone factory and then to an orphanage. Please pray as I am sure it will grip our hearts.
