One To Go
The third day is over. We had 121 today. There have been about 145 different kids come at least one day. Praise God that our numbers continue to grow and that more kids are having an opportunity to see Gods love. Our craft for the day was some sand art, and out youngest group decorated some paper dolls. The leaders are doing a great job organizing the activities and they are doing a great job with the kids. VBS in Latvia is different in only a couple of ways compared to what we are used to in the states. Here the youth lead the different groups with a few adults at different stations and organizing the whole thing. The other difference is that we can't understand the kids. They are doing a great job trying to teach some Russian words and phrases. Tomorrow will he our last day and Pator Petr will be talking to the kids and giving them a chance to accept Christ as their Lord and Savior. Please pray that many children will make decisions. Our craft for tomorrow will be a cross necklace and we will be giving some more gifts to the kids. Hopefully there will be pictures or videos posted a little later. Also please pray for the second half of our team as they will be heading out tomorrow morning.
