Day 3

 Day 3 was the first day of VBS! It was very chaotic at the church when a whole group of preschoolers came, but we were overjoyed to have a lot of the seats in the church filled. We sang songs with them: Jesus loves me, He’s got the whole world in his hands, and Hallelujah praise the Lord, all in Spanish!! The kids liked to come up and strum Grayson’s guitar. We put on a skit for the kids, colored with them, and read the 7 days of Creation from the Bible. 

A highlight of the day was interacting with the kids. Although they were oftentimes hard to understand, they were very excited to be there. 

After VBS, we sat down with Pastor’s family and the translators for a delicious home-cooked lunch made by Pastor’s wife. It was great to talk to the family, they made us feel at home. 

Back at the hotel, we played fun games together and Abby shared a devotion from Pslam 22:27-28. “All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you. For kingship belongs to the Lord, and he rules over the nations.”

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭22‬:‭27‬-‭28‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Beatmaster was a crowd favorite as well as our boys vs girls soccer game and “what would you choose” helped us learn more important facts about each other such as if you prefer Taylor Swift or Ed Sheeran ;).   Todays Bible lesson was “I am incredible because I am chosen by God” or “Soy increíble porque elegido por Dios.” The kids learned that just like God chose David to be king, He has also chosen us to spread His love and gospel.  After VBS, we sat down to another delicious meal that Pastor’s wife worked very hard on. We love sitting down to eat a meal with our new family, it is one of our favorite parts of the day.  Upon arriving back at the hotel, we cooled off in the pool, play...
