So I should probably explain the title first. Anja and I were waiting for the bell to signal the campfire where I tell the bible story but the wide game had gone late so we didn’t know when it was going to ring but we decided to come out and just wait for it. Well no sooner had we left our room when the bell rang and I joked that it was my speaker senses that made us be right on time. So that’s why this post is
titled that way.
I felt a lot more confident today and it went pretty smoothly. The best part of today was how excited the kids were to do their lessons. Not even half actually have done their lessons but the ones who have are so excited and they have done their lessons faster than I thought was possible. Since we never actually leave the camp and are around the kids all the time, they’ve just been giving us lessons and we keep giving them more. We actually had one girl who finished her “Meet the King” questions today! I also had another girl who said she wanted “10 of each kind of lesson!” I’m so glad these kids are enthusiastic about the lessons.
Neither Anja or I have had any kids accept Christ with us but so far there have been at least 4 kids who accepted Christ with their leaders. So that is super exciting!
I am still praying that we will make some really good relationships with the kids as well as the other leaders. The kids have become more attached to us and I’m glad we are starting to build that relationship with some of them but because there are so many kids and other leaders it’s hard to get any one-on-one time with them. It’s harder to get to know the leaders because they all know each other already and we are new, but for the most part they seem really nice and we have had the opportunity to have some conversations with some of them.
