Today was the first day of the Day camp in Lewisburg. We started our day with a great devotion at
the hotel that prepared us for the day. There
was a lot of one-on-one time in the morning with the kids, with more kids
arriving in the afternoon. Two skits were presented; Adam and Eve and the Fall,
then Noah and his family with the adults all in costume. To reinforce the points the children then
acted out the skits in costume. Lunch
was graciously served to us at the school.
In the afternoon Mr. Grimes from Parks and Recreation showed us ways to
work together and to learn trust.
We had a delicious supper at Ruby Tuesday after which we
went on a prayer walk. We split up into
three teams and stopped and prayed for each family on the street. Conversation was had with several people and
one woman who was concerned about her grandson was almost in tears after we
prayed for her and realized that’s all we wanted to do. She made the comment I feel like you are my
family. More stories and explanation
about the prayer walking when we get back.
It’s too hard in one short paragraph to explain the impact that it had
on us personally. As a Christian we are
learning more and more on this wonderful mission trip.
