Lochcarron Holiday Club - Day 2

We had our second day of holiday club today and it went great. The morning again started at 9 with a team meeting, devotional and time of prayer. It's a great time for all of us to come together and review the previous day's events and prepare and pray for the day ahead of us.

Today, we focused on how God seeks us out and finds us, meeting us wherever we are in life. Once again, Amy and John got the morning started off well and got the kids well energized. Once the kids were up and ready to go, we sang a few songs, which they seem to be loving. And then I taught the on the parable of the lost sheep. It was a great opportunity to tell the kids about how Jesus seeks each of us out and finds us, wherever we are hiding in our sin, and he puts us on his shoulders and brings us home, and he rejoices over each sinner who is found. We then took the time in our groups to reiterate these points. We made jungle drums for our crafts and played some fun "jungle" games as well. The morning wrapped up with the kids learning the next part of the memory verse, which they seemed to get pretty quickly. We also had a quiz time to review what we learned about the Lost Sheep, followed by a few final songs before departing for the day.

There are pictures from the day... but again, they have yet to be uploaded. They will be soon... I promise.

Please be in prayer for the work that is being done here in Lochcarron. Please be in prayer for the hearts of the kids we have met here this week. Pray that their eyes would be open to see and their ears open to hear the Gospel, such that their hearts would be changed. Please pray specifically for David and Mairi and their ministry here, especially as their work continues after this week is over. We do covet your prayers this week as we love and serve these kids in this community. Pray that we would do this well and that we would be able to speak and communicate the Gospel clearly to these kids.

Until next time... which may not be until Thursday due to a busy day scheduled for tomorrow...

Cheers!!

Emily
