Saturday update

 Mike's shoulder is getting better every day and we gave the salvation message yesterday which had quite an impact on the children.  It's a little sad that today is our last day of VBS but the kids have really enjoyed the time we have spent here.  We have enjoyed spending so much time with the kids and getting to know them better as well as teaching them about the great God that we serve.  We are already looking forward to returning next year to minister to the kids.

Making bandanas for craft time

A few guys from the rehab center even got involved in craft time! 

The kids really enjoy the songs (and so does the team)!

Before the salvation Bible story was presented by Hannah, we did a skit showing how sin makes us look black and dirty.

  2. Hannah, I talked to Texas. You have 3 classes, if you still want, that apply to the certificate. There are a couple of other options, too. Ella and Caleb were here from Tuesday til Saturday. We went to Waterworks on Friday. Ella said it was the best day ever.

    Miss you. Love, Mom
