We were blessed with another beautiful day to come together as the Harvest Kids.
A quick greeting with
Dove
the Harvest Kids rabbit
and then the morning greeting
to all the cans our friends
had donated throughout the week.
After they were crushed,
the kids counted the money
that had been donated to
finish their goal of $2,000
to purchase the property needed
to expand the primary school in Africa.
Mission accomplished
and they even have
$136
as seed money
toward the building of the new 6th and 7th-grade classrooms.
What a blessing for the families in this community 11,000 miles away.
After singing some songs,
Dale shared the creation story with everyone.
It is a blessing to be teaching
these young people
God’s Word
and
how it is God’s gift to us as His creation.
After lunch, we had a fun time bobbing for apples,
then had three of our new friends put their birthdays
on the birthday board and their handprints on the wall.
The kids enjoyed the sunshine playing basketball,
walking on the balance beam,
and stacking cups.
Later Dale helped them make “badges”
for themselves and anyone special for
Valentine’s Day.
As always, there is time to color and play with the Jenga blocks.
We are looking forward to next Saturday
and how the Holy Spirit is going to draw us even closer to each other,
and to Jesus, our Savior,
and our Father in heaven.
“These kids CAN and do make a difference!”
