la escuela

Today we ended up going to the elementary school, I may have had some evangelistic forecasting in the amount of kids that were going to be there. We didn’t have 800, but we probably had 400! It was an incredible day of ministry. There were countless stories of your kids, loving on these little children.
Stephen Terry, Storm Patterson, Mike Wodzisz, Jake Klapper, and Anthony Formicola tore it up as clowns! The principle of the school said she was so impressed because no other groups have come so prepared and ready to show these kids a fun time. They were running around in hot sweaty clown outfits laughing and smiling and hugging children. The little kids had a blast trying to steal their wigs and red noses. We are so proud of them!
Another really cool thing, which you needed to be there to get the full experience, was we broke up into 8 groups and our students shared their testimonies through a translator and presented the gospel to each and every kid that would listen. It was an incredible feeling for me to sit and watch and pray as they were leading children to the Lord. I was so proud!
Scott and Daniel said to me, “This is the first group we’ve ever worked with that knows how to play with children and not against them.” That was unbelievable for me to hear that. I was so proud of our group. They loved these kids with all they had!
Keep praying. Tomorrow we are going to work with the local High School. Then in the afternoon we have an incredible opportunity to pass out tracts to thousands of people who are making a pilgrimage to touch a statue which will “heal” them and walk through a special door to be forgiven of their sins. Daniel said that he has not brought a group to share the gospel with this group of people before. He feels that our group is ready for this! Please bathe this in prayer! Satan does not want us here. Satan does not want our group, your students doing all of these things!

But God is good!
