Village Bible Study

Tonight we had our second Bible study in the village and I worked with the kids today. We had four of our older girls at Haven of Hope prepare some educational materials and songs to use with the kids while their moms were at the Bible study. We were hoping this would take away the distraction of having literally 40 extra little bodies crowded around the blanket spread on the dirt ground.

All was well for the first hour and 15 minutes as we sang songs, learned colors, shapes, the alphabet, and read stories...and then chaos ensued! Yikes! Please pray that we can think of more ideas to keep the kids actively engaged.

Praise God that there were many new faces at the Bible study tonight and they are so hungry for God's Word. It really is neat to see.
