Just as we we were concerned about the weather affecting our VBS week, we had so much rainfall last night and today which made it impossible to meet outside for the first day. We were all saddened that we would have to delay the beginning of the program a day, but we pray that tomorrow we can enjoy the sunshine the weather reports are promising.
We went out to the soccer field on time this morning to see if any children were in sight. We received a call from one girl saying that her mother would not allow her to come due to the heavy rain. We spotted one boy in the distance and drove to him quickly to get him out of the rain and take him home. As we have a point system for the children to use to "buy" toys and other items at the end of the week, David and I decided to give this faithful little guy some extra points for being in his place for VBS! Please pray for a great week despite our rained out first day. We had some teen boys come to our house in the evening to check if they missed today and ask about tomorrow!
One more positive note as a result of the building situation - since we have been out in the soccer field for Sunday school these past three weeks, people have been asking us why we are meeting there instead of at the cultural building. When we explain the decision that was made they all offer to give their signature or support us in any way we may need it. Praise the Lord!
