Let the Program Begin

Tuesday morning rolled around and after worship we took the young ones out to the school across the street and into a “classroom” basically an 8x10 metal shed with benches. The children piled in!!!


We sung some songs and told some stories about Jesus! It was a very short but sweet time with them. We were given the chance to share the gospel and tell of our Great and powerful God that does miracles and loves all of them. Many raised their hands wanting to accept Jesus….oh a child like Faith! No questions or concerns just pure belief in Jesus! We gave them a chance to perform a song to the group, to share a bible story if they knew one, to come up front and sing and dance with us! They loved it all and we enjoyed every minute. It was a beautiful experience to be singing songs and to look over and make eye contact with just one child, to give a smile or make a quick silly face and watch their eyes light up!





They desired personal attention, affection, love, significance, and an intimate smile just for them, a single touch! Another reminder of how much I desire that from my God! The Lord again began to burden me with the message of motherhood. He laid it on my heart to share with the women what a privilege, responsibility and important ministry it is to be a mother …that children are a gift, a blessing and to remind them how God views HIS children. Shannon and I decided that after I would share with the women on Friday we would have the young ones come down and perform a few songs for the mommas…so the rest of the week consisted of us teaching the little ones two songs that they would perform…. along with more stories, more silly games, more conversations, more hugs, more funny faces, more friendships made, …oh how I loved making eye contact with one, watching them smile and hide behind a brother or sister but you know they just wanted more!!







I asked them if they knew a song and a few of them broke out with this...the rest joined in...I love their voices!!
