Children's Day Special Celabration. October 12th


Hope all of you have had a great Sunday.  We had a great day.  Here in Brasil we celebrate a day for the children.  This day is celebrated on October 12.  Since it was in the middle of the week we had something special for them today.  We are running the van and a bus on Sunday morning.  Today we had a great service and had several new visitors.  Odali use the colored bracelet to tell the about God.  Then each child got a bracelet to take home.

That way the children can tell their parents what they learned at church.  Most of the children come from homes were no one goes to church.  The truth is  that most of them come form home with single moms.  We also had other activities since it was a special days.  We don’t do egg hunt but we did a sucker hunt.  Boys  X  girls.  We hid 100 white ones for the boys and 100 pink ones for the girls.  They had to see how could find more the fasted. 
To finish the service we served the hot dogs.  We always serve lunch.  But hot dogs are special.  Believe it or not it cost more to serve hot dogs than a full meal. 
We want to thank all of those who pray for this ministry and us.  God bless each of you.
Please pray for us as the court hearings about the closing of the home will be starting.  We know that God is in control, but it puts a lot of wear and tear on us.  Pray that God give us the strength that we need for each day.
