So, on Friday at 2:00 we took off for the bush. It was a very intense time for the team. We ate all our meals over an open fire, and had to cook our meals ourselves. It was absolutely freezing! One night it was 2 degrees. We had to

'get close' just to keep warm. We did this one activity where the leaders lead the students out to a open field blindfolded and put them on a circle of rope. We put them on a place on the rope and told them to find the end. The only way to put up your hand and ask for help. 

 

The spiritual implications from this exercise were astounding. Some of the things talked about were how it was a metaphor for being saved, how they had to let go of the rope to ask for help, and how stubborn they really are.  I was amazed at all the metaphors in that exercise.

 

Yesterday,  I took my ministry group to our ministry, and it was amazing! Amanda, Jessica, and Victoria are in my group and our ministry in 7th Heaven Orphanage. It is one lady, Nelly, and 5 kids but another child is coming on Friday. The children are Linda 12, Tessa 10,  Renaldo 8, Cornelius 6, and Oxa 2. We had so much fun just talking with Nelly and playing with the kids. I am so excited for what this ministry will bring. Nelly really wants us to redo her playroom. We want to paint it and put letters and numbers on the walls and bins for the toys. I need to figure out how to get money here for this need, but please pray about blessing a women of God.
