Jambo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do I describe a day that is completely unforgettable?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This morning, we got to hear a devotional from the Courage\u2019s Chaplin Ellie. She asked Kenzie and I (Lauren) to act out a skit for her, one of us was blind and the other was limp, our acting skills were great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second part of the morning we got to worship with all the girls. We showed them a few of our songs and then after we asked if they would teach us a few of theirs. (We enjoyed theirs way more!) After worship we got to host a mini VBS, we went over Joshua 1:9. I was able to read the verse and share my testimony with all the girls. It very was scary and empowering at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the afternoon we had three stations for the girls to be apart of. First group was dancing, second group was volleyball, third group was soccer. Kenzie and I had volleyball, and we just taught a few easy skills (pass, set, hit, serve) We were also able to give each girl a jerseys due to the kind donation we received from Jessup athletics. The girls were in awe and absolutely loved wearing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the end of the day we ended with a few crafts. We made bracelets with the girls and Dave made balloon animals\/crowns. The excitement the girls got over a balloon giraffe has kept a permanent smile on my face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s only the second day and I have already fallen in love with the location and the people. I can\u2019t wait to see what else God has in store for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tu Ta Unana Kaesho (See you tomorrow)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
