Plan B Day...

Plan B Photo...  Only one is ready for Prime Time here...

This day has unfolded unlike the plan we had.  That isn't really surprising but it has made for a number of changes in plans.  

Uno underway...

For some reason we had a late start at the camp.  When we arrived some of the children were already involved in other activities - a soccer game, ping pong, UNO - to name a few.  We set up but didn't have the expected crowd of kids.  However, as we got underway, children arrived and began to participate.

A better version of the team and our translators...

Adding drama to the scripture reading...

We are ending our day feeling that it has been a good day.  There have been lots of smiles, hugs, tussles between little boys and kids loving the recreation, crafts and Adam Raccoon stories.  The big boys are acting the parts of Joseph and those in his life as we share God's truth through scriptures.

Let me share the day through captioned photos.

Waiting for Gazebo Time to start...

All rehearsed, the little girls are center stage for performance with their puppets...

A panel adds a contempory element to the Joseph story.  In today's lesson, Joseph is wrongly accused and is fired from his slave job...  These 3 have been fired from jobs and shared their stories... 

We have terrific translators.  They not only translate, they lead in very energetic and effective ways.  Moldova has some terrific young, educated, godly leaders who will be amazing in whatever they do in the future.  We are so grateful for them.

  Thanks for prayers.  We are being sustained and energized for our time here.  But now for some sleep...
