Day 4

We made it over the hump!

It was another day where we held camp at the church. Today, we woke up to a devotional from 1 Kings 3:4-14, where we learned that we need to have a humble, child-like heart and ask God for wisdom. We will not be able to do any of this without Him giving us strength. In our verse, Mrs. Huang pointed out how Solomon would talk a lot about David, his father, because he was a big influence on Solomon. We are able to influence the people around us and make a big impact on their lives as well.

For singspiration, we are starting to hear the kids sing-along with us, and remembering the hand motions. We are able to teach another new song to the kids, "Jesus I am In". Also, we learned a new Bible verse Psalm 119:43: "Never take your word of truth from my mouth." 

We also made stain glass for craft. Some students are able to trace a design that the teacher and TAs drew and some students were really creative with their own drawings. Some examples I saw were: panda, dinosaur, owl, bunny, and dog.

Our Bible story is next. We learned about Daniel and the Lions. The kids were understanding that Daniel was being faithful to God and continued to pray to God, even though he was breaking the law. Daniel was also not afraid to be taken into the lion's den because he knows that God will be able to protect Him.

The last activity for today, we did another science experiment. This time, we learned about the different density with oil, water, and food coloring. We were able to do an experiment called fireworks in a cup. Secretly, the team was celebrating fourth of July with everyone in the US. The students were able to see the beautiful food coloring falling from the oil into the water. The students were really engaged in the activity.

As we continue to work with the local TAs, we are able to serve these kids together as a team!  

Continue to pray for us. Pray that God gives us wisdom as we interact with the students. Pray for soften hearts of the students and parents because we will be having visitations tomorrow.
