Saturday, July 14...we can't believe we depart in less than a week!

Today brought  more God-interactions with the children and the staff of Victory Family Home of Champions.  Today's Bible study was on the Thomas, the "doubting" disciple.  Our team discussed the  events leading up to Thomas' doubting and how we sometimes doubt things we don't see.  Ed told a story of himself collapsing at the bus stop when he was in the third grade and that leading up to his appendix being removed.  He asked how many children believed his story.  Many did, many did not.  After he showed his scar from that surgery, the children believed.  We used this to relate to the doubting Thomas story.  After completing a worksheet and more discussion we wrapped-up our Bible study.

After lunch, we conducting a Karate session for the children.  With about forty kids participating, we showed them pressure points and various kicking techniques.  It was a great time!

Then the ladies led the children in crafts where they made arks like Noah's.  The children loved the craft time!

Following, craft time, we had the daily football (soccer) game and again, this was intense.  Ed stoved his finger saving a goal kicked by Pastor Isaac BUT Ed's team still lost the game.  He has never--ever--had a victory AT Victory!

Family time found the team re-enacting the story of Noah and the ark.  Following that fun time, Lauren, Leah, Mike, and Serena prepared Smores' and each child received a treat....then we released them back to the Momma's!

All-in-all another fun day--blessed by God--directed by the Holy Spirit!

THANK YOU for your prayers of support....we feel them!
