The children of the Well of Grace Church

We spent a wonderful morning with the children of the Well of Grace Church, this is the Sam Rong Tai Church in the slums. We were greeted by 35-40 children with smiles and roses. They sang songs of praise and recited the Books of the Bible, The Ten Commandments and The Lord's Prayer. It was great to see the love of Christ shining through their eyes. We had time to spend with them in small groups and learned that rock, paper, scissors is universal. We also learned that seeing themselves on a digital camera is exciting and making silly noises reaches across the language barrier. Most of these children are without parents and being raised by extended family members, it was great to love on them.

The afternoon was spent with Mike and Kay Killar and their family. We learned more about their vision and needs in their new ministry, Samaritan Creations. We were able to spend time praying over them and encouraging them. We also had time as a team to reflect on the trip and share with one another what God had placed on each of our hearts. The real challenge to each of us is to continue to hear God's voice and see the needs of His people when we return home.

Some of the team left around 9:30 p.m. for their flight home.
