God is good!!!! - Day 3

Hi it's Susan.

Its another good day. Once again we had a great Bible study of Psalm 65 led by David. What a great way to start our day...in God's Word.

The children marched into GAMES singing "Trust and Obey" with gusto. No half-hearted singing here!

Nancy and Vicky always start the children in GAMES. We sing "His Banner Over Me Is Love". Nancy helps the children understand the meaning of the words. Its a sweet start to the morning.

Then each of us went to our posts....I worked with national teacher, Caroline, doing relays. It was so much fun. We did egg relays, running relays, and water relays. The other teams did fun activities too. But you'll just hear about mine today. :)

Team Africa had a planning lunch. We're in charge of the children from 10-12 tomorrow morning. We put our heads together and came up with a plan for the two hours, which we'll run by Nancy. We think its going to be a fun time...our first time for all of us to be with all the children and in charge.
After lunch, Melissa, Linda, and I sat in the cottages while the children napped. The moms had Bible study with Nancy. The children were "little angels" and we mini missionaries all got very sleepy while on duty.

Typical of Africa, we were without power for 3 1/2 hours around dinner time. Dinner in the dark was special! Back to the guest house and we had Bible study (Romans 8 from church) in the dark. Stimulating discussion with "Team Africa". We sang and off to bed for a good night's rest.
We thank God for this incredible opportunity He has given us!
Love,
Susan
