First Children's Program

We ran our first children's program, it went well....thanks to Shorty and Dora. I was so proud watching our group work with the children, and all in the small yard at the work site. The fact that majority of the kids hadn't heard the story of David and Goliath, thanks to Harv, Wayne, and Cole who acted out the story.
We got a taste of their chaos, and their need for survival. It came about when we were handing out our little gift for them. We were surrounded with grasping hands of children and moms, that the crowd just didn't get smaller. How different would it be if they turned their eyes and hands to God.
This house is going to bless this neighborhood. The fact that it's being built beside the home of a thief, and physical abuser of his family. It's not by chance! Thank God that He has a plan and is in control of this all.
A highlight of the day is that the oldest son of the man I just mentioned asked Jesus into his heart today!! Amazing!!

Tomorrow is our day "off". I'd tell you what is planned, but we've learned that our plans are always changing.

God Bless!!
