The children were so happy to spend time with everyone! Cindy quickly became the center of the universe as all the children lined up to have her paint their faces. Katy did a wonderful job organizing the games and the children
The rest of the team arrived just in time for the afternoon service. Russ gave a beautiful sermon. Actually, have gave two! He spoke just to the children first, using water’s three forms as ice, water and steam to explain how God can be the father, son and Holy Spirit. He spoke to the adults about the living water which set the community up to hear about the water purification project
that followed the spaghetti dinner prepared for the community by Mama and part of the team. After a few minutes of eating and fellowship with the people, it was time to share the water purification project.
The community was in awe as they watched Beth, Mark, Russ and April demonstrate how to purify the water. The community leader was so excited to fill up cups of the now potable water and pass them out to the members of the community! It was a beautiful sight to see. All in all, a wonderful and fulfilling first day of service for the team.
