The first day of VBS there was over 100 children. The translators, Egla, Maidi and Heidi open up the session with Honduran Christian songs for the children. They did the old faithful "El Pollo". As usual the North Americans enjoyed learning the new song. On one day the children who were doing a skit for VBS got their face painted according to their part in the skit. This team did a skit each day after telling the bible story. The children were included in the "dramas" and the excitement each day of who was going to get to be a part of the skit magnified. There was a craft done each day. The children of this area do not have crafts as part of their Sunday School hour. So when the North Americans come down with activities to do there is always a since of gratitude from the church Sunday School teachers and the children. They love to simply color a picture. After VBS was over Sarah and Marshall enjoyed playing futbol with the children. At the end of the week there was 150 children who heard the word through bible stories, dramas, songs and crafts. God is so good all the time.
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before HIS presence with singing."
Psalm 100:2
