We just got back fromVBS, the kids were soo cute and it was really fun!! We got to the school and it was definetly not whati had expected. the school was made up of small rooms with lotsof desks. There was a very small courtyard, but not all of the kids would have been able to fit into it. Because there was not alot of space we went intothe street to do our program. I thought it was amazing how well the singing and the motions went because we have only known them for a day. I was compleatly humbled by the size of the school and the happieness of the kids. They were soo happy, and it seemed like they really wanted to be there. It made me realise how much i take school for granted!
when we went inside the school to do crafts and there was a boy who came up to me and counted to 100 in english and was really excited that he could!! the language barrier was probably the hardest part, but I am starting to understand more spanish.
I cant wait to see what else God has in store for us this week!!
