Today we went door to door in the neighborhood with invitations to attend and had twice as many kids as yesterday. It was a lot of fun. I was a little worried about needing to keep kids inline after being tired from painting, and not having the Spanish vocabulary to direct kids' behavior, but the kids were very well behaved. I helped with crafts again today and had many kids showing me their work for approval. I was able to say bueno and le gusto (I like it) with a smile, so one little girl decided to strike up a conversation with me which was more than my limited vocab could handle. At the end of the afternoon, she came running over to say goodbye to me and gave me a hug. So sweet!
I did a little better with my songs in Spanish today. It helped to be able to see the words on a song sheet!
The bible story today was the Good Samaritan, which we acted out as Jay did the narration. Then Pastor Ramon presented a lesson.
The kids played Pato, Pato, gonzo (duck,duck, goose). After a while they took to teaming up against the adults playing. By trying to hold them back as they ran around the circle. It had everyone laughing.
