Salt and Light

Day 2 of VBS. Today’s theme was from Matthew 5:13-16 where Jesus talks about His believers being like salt and light for the world to make a difference in it. We spent the morning with widows from the village again and this time they brought items for “skilling”. This is what they call it when they make handmade items such as mats, woven bowls, and tablecloths. They are incredibly resourceful in how they use materials that are easy to obtain and make something beautiful out of it. For example, the mats are made from banana leaves and once woven together, they are strong and have many uses.

In the afternoon, children from the surrounding villages and the orphans rotated thru the 6 stations of VBS. We know of at least 5 children that accepted Jesus as their Savior today! At the end of the day we gathered for a time of dancing and wow- they LOVE to dance!!!! We all had a blast.Lue lisää
