.. it is official, I mean I knew it was, but wow it is unreal!
So things have been going great. Sidewalk Sunday school is continuing each week,have had lots of different themes, from Laundry week to crazy hair to yogi bear idol to jungle week this incoming week! As time is going on I am meeting more people and building relationships with some families, which is awesome. Church had a special evening for Mom's in aid of Mothers day which was last sunday. We brought moms who had never been to church before,it was great! Numbers have been growing of our people,from our harlem area. Last Sunday our bus for church was FULL...it was awesome, God is moving in this place,itis such a priviledge to be part of it. Pleasepray thi s will continue and that we maybe equipped to minister to them.
Indoor sunday school on saturdays is going great too! We have switched responsibilites,so now I'm helping out in the overflow, so have had the opportunity to teach twice.. very humbling to be part of this ministry.
All us interns are getting on great, like a big family.. it is going to be sad to leave. We are all avoiding talking about it! however we need to be praying about the future as there aremany opportunites to stay on here as staff. Would appreciate your prayers as I seek God's plan for my life.
Class is still going, it is good have had work to hand in, now have to make a portfolio ofmy time here with pictures and also interview staff to gain a better understanding of ministry, so that is on going alongside other work.
I'm doing good, really loving this work. It is so wonderful to be able to love kids and love families and get to know them.. it is so natural because that is what we are called to do as Christ's followers. I lost my voice last week, it is better but I am now coughing.. I feel like I'm continually fighting sickness- as is most people here..I know it is satan trying to stop us but we will continue!!please pray.
Thanks so much for your prayer and support, I am so grateful, God has been so faithful and I know it is partly because of the intercession you guys have put in!so thanks!!
Above is all us interns... where´s waldo?!
