Hello! So yesterday I had said that one of my clubs had been moved to next week. So although next week looks like it is going to be a rather full day, I had the opportunity for a nap today. I am incredibly thankful that i could sleep 2-3 hours today. I woke up with major heartburn and a really bad stomach ache this morning and the nap provided a break from the pain. I was honestly super discouraged about teaching today. I was not in the mood at all. But God has a way of getting us through the tough clubs and changing or mindset. Maybe even helping us do a 180… Today was a tough day. But God is good, All the time!

I arrived at my first club and we had three new kids!!! I am so glad. But during the first song I nearly passed out. My hostess was thankfully outside and told me to take a seat. She ran inside a grabbed me a cold compress and a tall glass of ice water. She also went over the contest while i tried to regain my focus. I am so thankful for her, and am glad that the kids were patient with my ineptitude. I was able to finish the club and a few of the kids seem really into the stories so I hope that God can use me to reach these kids.

I came back to my billets at lunch and then went to sleep. She woke me up in time to have a quick snack and some water before club. I am so thankful to everyone that prayed for me today. I am not feeling 100% better, but I am feeling a lot better.

My second club went from three kids to six kids! I was so glad. A few of the kids were not super interested in anything and that made it hard for the ones who were interested. No one wanted to be the one kid who sang, haha so I was the one Kid, um Adult, that sang by myself. No form of encouragement could get the kids to sing or participate. It was a tough crowd. It was kinda an awkward club. There were kids that wanted to be there and learn but there were others that were not so interested and that made it difficult for the younger ones to be interested. They wanted to participate, but they didn’t want to be the only ones so I was the only one.

I really pray that the kids think over what they heard today and that it resonates with them. I felt so inadequate today.

I really hope that everyone is having a great first week. I love reading everyone’s blogs when I have the time!
