Kids Festival

Thomas and Ella inviting a litle girl at the corner to come play with us and Franci playing parachute games with the kids.

.

More games. I play Mar (sea) & Tierra (land) with the kids and Chad taught them Red Light, Green Light.

.

We had a puppet show, songs, a Bible lesson and an English lesson.

.

By the end of the festival, we had over 50 children with a handful of mothers and grandmothers listening as well. With the huge number of kids we had at the kids festival, there is great potential in this area to work with children and let the children be an open door to the parents.

.

Franci and I used the festival as a kick off to our Saturday afternoon class. Every Saturday at 3pm we have a class with a little bit of English and a Bible lesson in Yanamayo. So far, the class has been small with about 6 - 8 kids each week. But we are building relationships with these kids and last week four of the girls didn't want us to go home. They followed us to our next appointment just to be with us a little longer. But we do have a problem with the location we have permission to use. There is a community location called Vaso De Leche (Glass of Milk). We have permission to use this location to teach the kids but the past two weeks we have been unable to find the president of the community group at home in order to get the key. So, we have continued with the class out on the sidewalk. . Pray that we would be able to use the Vaso De Leche location this Saturday and also pray that God would use Francisca and I to touch the lives of these children and their families.
