On Friday morning we continued with our English lessons. I am so proud of the standard eight students Lindsie and I are teaching. They are in summer school preparing for their exams in the morning till about 10 o'clock, then come straight over to our class till about noon. It's completely an option to come to our classes but they are all eager and enthused!
Michelle and Kelly taught standard 1-5 students. They sang songs, learned about syllables and vowel sounds. So many students filed in for their lesson!
Friday afternoon we visited the Reform School again. This time we put together a talent show! Our team put on a skit that showed the unconditional love of our Lord. The boys then took turns performing songs, skits, and talents. One of my favorite skits was an acting out of a soccer tournament. The two teams were team Jesus and team devil. The boy commentated the entire 'game' even taking time for, a word from sponsors! The Jesus team would pass the football back and fourth between Mark and Luke, then to Romans, then to James. Jesus team eventually got a goal in the fourth quarter!
The skit was so creative and had a great message. I was impressed how the boy's faith shined through their talents. They sang hymns and songs of faith and a couple boys recited Bible verses.
It was a great way to share our strengths and gifts that God has given us. Sharing these gifts with others is just another way to glorify God and thank Him for all He has provided us with. As the Bible says, there are many different gifts, acts or service, and works, but in all of the gifts that are in everyone, come from the one God.
