The Amazing gRace

Last night I shared the "missions moment" at a VBS camp full of kids K-5 and what a great joy it was to be with them and see all that they had learned over 3 nights. Their theme was the Amazing gRace and you would have thought "amazing" as you watched them sing and energetically do the motions to the songs. They loved it! No adult teachers were pushing them to participate...they wanted to be there. Could I have asked for a better group to share with!

When it was my turn, I shared with a Kinder/1st group, a 2nd/3rd group, and a 4th/5th group. Each time I got to tell them my own mission story and how God was using me with Mission Adelante. Then I challenged them to be missionaries to their neighbors next door, their friends, and most importantly the "forgotten" people in their schools. Who knows what messages they will walk away remembering this pack week, but they gave me an amazing free gift to be able to join with them and share.

What a gift from God to have such an opportunity! It was priceless.
