Kids' Clubs and Construction

Misionera de Verano (Summer missionary) Angie does an excellent job teaching the Bible lesson at the Kids' Club

For lack of a table and a very small space, we used chairs for the craft! The kids had a ball, covering their door hangers with more stickers than you can imagine! Our meeting room is a garage, quite small, but no one complained, in fact the kids enjoyed every moment of it!

Our game today was Musical Chairs. Doing that in a room the size of a garage is a challenge, but we managed and the kids had fun! The boys won today! We'll see what happens during the games tomorrow!

This week a team of nine is here from Frisco, Texas, blessing us with their enthusiasm and wonderful help. Part of the team is working at our community outreach center, putting in a ladies' bathroom. We're excited! They've tiled part of it after Day 1 and it looks beautiful! Some of them are sore, not used to this kind of work, but are still enthusiastic and excited! Three of the gals are doing the crafts and games for two kids' clubs, one held in the morning and one in the afternoon. This morning we had about 24 kids and it went very well. The afternoon club had about 16 children and also went well. The kids are super excited and I suspect we'll have even more come tomorrow. Tomorrow I'll try to get some pictures of the hard-working folks making a beautiful bathroom for us!
