I have to start this out by saying WOW! What an experience it has been so far! This is only day two.
We all arrived safely! We got through the airport in Mexico City without any problems. The Lord definitely gave us all favor!
The next day we all unpacked our activities and began to plan out our time with the kids, It was so hard to pay attention to our own little details since all the kids were out and about starting out their daily activities out on the playground with their teachers and helpers. Personally just wanted to go out there and be with the kids, but we needed to get organized.
We finally got out there and spent time with the kids! Our focus for the week was CREATION week. We began teaching them a new song (10.000 reasons)..in SPANISH. They are quick learners! We also started a project called “Creation Crowns. Each child was able to color and decorate their own Crowns! ” We also did tissue paper collages! The kids loved it.
The children are all so special, what a privilege to be able to be a part of a team that is committed to fulfill “His Great Commission”
I wish we could sponsor all the kids that have no sponsor! There were times when I had to walk away and catch my “Emotional Breath”. Knowing that most of these kids come from dysfunctional backgrounds, and some just abandoned, just broke my heart.
The cool part is just spending time and sitting next to these kids spending time with them making them laugh, bringing them joy and the love of Christ has been so awesome!
My wife and I are so thankful that God has appointed us to be a part of this ministry…please keep us all in your prayers!
