Village Outreaches

After the three nights of crusades we had 5 nights of village outreach. Each evening we would leave the hotel around 5 and we would drive anywhere from 1-3 hours to a village. We did not know what to expect the first night when we got to the church. But it was okay because we went with the Lord and He knew what we needed and He prepared us! When we got to the church we were greeted by many many children! Ann, our leader said, "Paige this is your area, GO!" Without any prep we went! We sang songs and we told stories and we handed out candy and balloons! Each night we got better and better! It was amazing! The children that greeted us come to the church everyday. In the morning they come before school and worship and eat breakfast. After school they come back to the church where there is a certified teacher to help them with their homework. They eat dinner and those children that live close go home after dinner but if they live far then they stay at the church. The food is provided for them free of charge and so is the place to stay. James and Sarah's ministry pays for these things!

This is one of the church workers! She was so cute and she spoke English a little and we were able to talk!

This is a shot of us teaching the kids! I love kids and we had a great time singing songs! They sang in English and it was so great! We taught them two songs! All the years of teaching Sunday School paid off!! My love for children was sparked again! Praise the Lord for all the children of the world!

After we taught the kids we went to an area where the adults were watching the Jesus Film. After the film one of our team members shared their testimony or shared something from the Bible. Then we prayed for the sick! This is were we saw SOOOOO many amazing miracles! Praise the Lord!! It was so awesome to be used this way! God healed blind eyes, deaf ears, lame legs, hurt knees, arms, elbows and the list goes on and on! It was awesome and other than that there are not words to describe the feelings and the experiences! Our God is an AWESOME God!
