Greatest Story Ever

Our location is a center that is in an area where a lot of people live. Nearly 100 children come to the center each day. Liz and I teach English in the morning while our Korean team mates teach guitar and piano lessons. The kids are excited to learn English and to show off the English that they already know. After two hours of learning English the kids leave and go home for lunch. We eat lunch  together as a staff at the center. 

When the children arrive again it is time for Bible lesson. We start with fun songs and then break into groups to read the Greatest Story Ever, the Wonderful Story, and the VBS Bible materials. We read through stories, draw pictures from the stories and play games like fill in the sentence, guess the word, and crossword puzzles all with words from the stories. 

After a full day at the center we return to the apartment where we are staying at and cook dinner as a team. In the morning after breakfast, but before children start arriving we join the centers staff Bible study -to dive into the word together and pray before we start our day. Sundays we join the center for worship, another Bible lesson then we eat lunch with the kids.

Our time here in South East Asia is quickly coming to an end. I pray that the time that we have spent here has been beneficial to furthering the kingdom of God and that the children have learned more about God’s love for them. 

Pray for the children who are attending the daily classes. As they hear the Greatest Story Ever, pray for the Holy Spirit to work in their lives.
