Day 7: God rewards those who trust Him (August 12)


Hola everyone!

Unfortunately, I don't have any photos for all of you today because it has been such a busy day and I'm actually writing this during breakfast before we head out for another busy day!

God was so great yesterday and every single day! Although we have to get up early and don't have enough rest, God still gives us strength to just continue throughout the day in schools. We had the privilege to go back to the Christian private school that is called "Colegio Cristiano SalvadoreƱo En-Hacore". The students always receive us so well and we feel so welcome! We got up and didn't have the chance to have breakfast, which was quite a challenge for a few of us. We got to the school and spoke to 2 group of students (We have seperated the team into 3 teams) so we had about 6 groups of students in total. Again, the students were wonderful, they participate and listen well. We usually ask a student to translate (if they can) since they can relate to their peers. After we spoke to the groups, the principal treated us to a breakfast and it was wonderful. God always provides us with people that take care of us. After we ate, we had another group of students. To be honest, it has been a little challenging for me because it does get a little boring to hear myself talk about the same thing all over again but I hope that God is working in my talk. We also got the opportunity to play soccer with some students! First, the males played and they lost 4-5 and then the females played and lost like 1-3, I think. After the games, we left the school.

We then went out to lunch and then we went to a public school. The kids were so wonderful! They even stood up when we walked into the class to greet us and didn't sit down until we said they could. But yeah, they participated and some kids came up to me and said that they were Christian.

Also, we went to got a new transportation and we went to Wal-Mart... and got a bunch of snacks, sorry to the parents hehe but we couldn't resist! It was nice to just go and hang out and relax for one night.

Today, we are running a camp at a park! So please pray that lots of kids come out and that they all have fun and learn a lot. May God work through us and may we listen to His voice.

I had to cut this down because we have to leave like now but I wanted to update you all!
