First Friends Youth In Turvo!
It was absolutely wonderful to have people from our church here with us and God used each one in a mighty way to bless the children, as well as the staff. They arrived with literally a ton of donations to enhance our ministry: clothes, medicines, computers, games, birthday presents, sports equipment...and of course, chocolate chips and peanut butter! They did a VBS program each morning, games in the afternoon, and another fun activity in the evening. In between, they showered our kids with the Father's agape love. One of the highlights of the week was a time of prayer and worship in English for us and Kristin. One night, glow-in-the-dark soccer was a huge hit, followed by a bonfire with lots of s'mores and worship. We visited Entre Rios for a trip to the waterfall and to meet the children there. Please pray for God to use this trip to stir hearts of future missionaries!
