A Week of Crazy
Hey Everyone,
Well today marks the end of our first week doing Kwo Manyen programs all over town. We did a total of 4 programs, probably getting to share with over 75 kids. Some lessons from the first week: Make sure there are no adults around. Okay why is this a lesson? Mainly because on Monday our program in Lolojo had three adults. They treated it like a home fellowship and even took over my leading of worship. While its cool that they wanted to worship the Lord like that, this program caters to a certain age group. Part of my ministry philosophy is to be a little goofy as I communicate the truths of the Bible. That is really hard to do with adults around. Lesson #2 Kids under 10 are out of control. In two separate places we had a hard time keeping the attention of the older kids because the younger ones or as I call them Matidis(an anglicized form of the acholi word for small). Yesterday they were out of control in a place called Munbunyo. Hopefully in all the noise the kids got the Word and that's what's important. Well next week we'll be at it again. So keep these kids in prayer, that many kids would come to know Jesus.
