Alrighty, well today was simpltly amazing to say the least! I had to wake up early but now matter.....it was so worth it! I woke up to go to the senior citizen home. Here it is called Quyaana care. Quyaana means thank you in.....one of the eskimo languages. Anyways, we went there to sing and minister to tje residence. It was so amazing to talk with them, and to sing with them. Some pwople kwpt shouting out their favorite hymns that they wanted to sing. All of the missionaries preached to them through encouraging verses and explanation. One of mine was obviously. 2 Corinthians 5:17 which talks anout the great news of new life. When we come to Christ, our old life is gone. No matter what we have done, or where we have been, it doesnt matter because we are living in Jesus NOW!!! It is one pf those verses to always keep handy as a missionary for sure! So we sang and ministered to tgem, and then, the coolest thing happened. One pf the more abled women spoke up and told us that it is so awesome to have young missionaries in their small villiage and how no matter what they are doing, thwy are reaching lives and it is such a blessing. She said that were were making a difference in the name of Jesus! And then her and another woman sang a song in their native language that was translated into a praise song! It was the most magnificent experience and feeling to know that they see the difference youre making for Jesus, and that they shared something with me I may NEVER hear again. It was the biggest blessing!!!!
After we left there, we went to the music ministers house to help her and her husband move their washers and dryers all aroun and get rid of their old ones. Some tough manual labor, but we helped out our brother and sister in Christ so it was pretty awesome and kinda fun to be honest haha!
After that, I went back to the church and Kayla and I got ready for summercise. Summer lunch went great, and summercise was a blast! We twsted spices in gardening class, made veggie sushi in healthy kitchwn, and we made swert potatoe fries in tast the rainbow. It was ALOT of fun!!! And really good truthfully! My kids are just to die for! We had alot less today, probably because it was HOT today...about 80.....and so people were prolly out doing real summer things! But one humerous thing that happened today was all the kids in healthy kitchen thought Phoebe(the teacher) and I were married.. it was quite the ordeal!!
You know, aside from all of the positives and amazingness about summercise, Christ is teaching me patience theough this program as well. Although I LOVE workib with kid, it isnt always raibows and butterflies like people imagine it would be. So througg this I am gaining patience out the wazoo! It is a blessing and I am so thankful to God fpr being my teacher in this tough life situation! Praise Him!
After summercise, the team who went to Teller got back, abd so there is currently....30 people under this churches rooof. It so awesome to be able to feel comfortable woth this many people. I look at my surrounding people, and they are all my brotgees and sisters. It is simply amazing! They are alot of fun and I love them already. I am sad that they have to leave so early:( (tomorrow).
After that, I helped Ms. Gloria make Pho. And then we ate and I then gave the Bible study. It went quite well I believe! I loved the study. Anger is something I struggle with, Gods message spoke to me through my own mouth haha! A majority was from Matthew 5:22-27. It basically speaks about anger dwelling within you. If you have anger, and you try to bring worship to God.......you may as well not even try because that worship is useless to Jim if you have ager festering within. Before you can cone before him, reconcile with the others whom you are angry with. Fix the problem before u cant.
Study was AWESOME. Then all the missionaries and the younger missionaries From the Teller team who are from Americus? Georgia, went ro berhing sea restaurant. We got some GREAT Milkshakes!!! We came back, wrote insprational things on the road in chalk, and then went jnaide to hang out with this awesome mission team feom Geaorgia! They have neen alot of fun, and I am excited to spend the day with them tomorrow before they leave. Should be a great day of fellowship.
My day ended with a good spiritual discussion with Aubrey while sitting on the kitchen floor. Yes I said it....kitchen floor! I love it down there haha!
I miss and Love you all dearly! God Bless!
Always keep this in mind to share with someone......It is never to late to come to Jesus. Come as you are and he will rejoice with open arms, welcoming you with celebration. Praise Jesus! Love you! !<3
