The Lord has blessed us with no rain for VBS and then rain in the evenings. This is necessary as we are running out of water. We do not have running water so we bring in bucket loads (well mostly Seth has but we are now persuading him to allow us to help. Please pray that we get a nice downpour to replenish some water as 9 people plus our extended team seems to take it's toll on the rain water tank.
Some of the schools are back in session. VBS was about 275 kids. Today the lesson was on forgiveness. The characters in our play, Tammy & Kip, processed how to forgive Smelly Shelly. Shelly hasn't been receptive yet. The kids review songs and learned new ones. They also did some exciting activities such as the parachute and the over-under relay. There is nothing like hearing the happy cheers of children.
We continue to build relationships and encourage believers in their walk. It is a huge blessing that the Lord allows us to be here. We are also being stripped and humbled. We will certainly come back changed from the inside out.
