Asking the question to 75 enthusiatics listeners at EUMC Church today, "Have you ever been on a vacation or trip and when you've returned home you wanted to share every detail about that trip?" One little boy probably age 4 or 5 looked at his Mom and said: "Mom, what trip did I like?" and she said, the Brewer Game? He replied No Mom, the other trip....she said "The waterpark?" he replied "No Mom" the other one...she thought for minute and said the "train trip" He stood up and said "YES MOM finally that was the one" and he began to share all the details about his trip to Chicago on the Metra. Listening to his recollection about this trip was my purpose for being with this wonderful group of children today. I went there to share about a trip I took over a year ago and what was placed in my heart to share. There faces and great listening ears made my heart sing. They learned that the children/orphans in Tanzania are not as fortunate as the children are that were sitting in front of me today.
This wonderful church sponsors a World Vision Child in Tanzania. I am able to connect them to this brother of theirs and they were so excited to hear about where Johanes lives, how he lives and that he is a child just like they are!! The 75+ children that I had the honor to teach today, showed me that the little things we can do here; will make a huge difference for him and others. The gifts I will take with me are precious because they were made with love. The prayers for Johanes, his family and his village were heard....he will sleep just a little better tonight knowing so many care for him.
Thank you children at EUMC , Miss Karen and Miss Sandy. You are a truly Special group!!
Until next time~
Cheers!
