I have had a group here since Tusday,

These students and leaders are from Baltimore MD. The church they are from is called Kingdom Life. Their main reason for coming was to help out another Kingdom Life church here. Each morning they have been going over to the church and doing VBS. That stands for Vacation Bible School. They stay there until 1pm and then going over to the Girl's and Boy's Homes. Then there has been another four guys working on replacing a roof at one of the people's home that goes to Kingdom Life Church.
Yesterday I had a chance to spend time at the boy's home with them. Pastor Arie asked me to stay and if I wanted to share about what I have been through before I become a Christian. I shared for about 10 minutes and then Pastor did his ting. Then they all broke up in small groups and talked about what we shared. Then while in the groups, they were asked a question. If you only had tomorrow left to live, what would you do? I really think that is a great question, The reason is our murder rate is at 89 up today. It looks like we will go beyond last years 96. It is only Aug. So you never know how much time you have on this earth? So I you knew today was my last day here. What would you do? I would be trying to find family and friends that don't know Christ, then share with them about Him. The reason is when I am in Heaven, I want my family and friends to be there too.
The pictures below shows a couple of guys. first one is Gerry, he has been here now almost two weeks. He has been friends with Eddy since back in Jerrsy. He came down here to get away a little. Plus Eddy has really enjoy this company. They both have been doing the cooking and trying to keep these kids bellies full each day. They really have done a great job. Eddy is here until Sept? Not sure when but he has been such a blessing to me and this group. If Eddy and Gerry where not here, this group would have to make their own meals. That is really not a bad thing, but it takes away from the ministry they came down here to do.
Kevin has been in heaven with this group. The reason they are his age and he loves to spend time with them. pretty much every day Kevin has been part of their group. He helps out with VBS, then spends time at the homes with them. Then at night he has been taking them down to the beach and just loving the friendship and knowing he is hearing the Word of the Lord each day too. I am so blessed to have him here, we have been trying read a Proverb each day together, then talk about it. Kevin has a been a big help too. He takes care of the drinks and helps out doing some of the dishes and just being here. Today he will be feeding the animals at the Centre. Then going to church with them. After that we will be having a picnic here at the Camp. The Kingdom Life Church will be coming back here to have some good food and fellowship.
I thank each and every one of you out there that have been praying for Kevin and myself. Prayers are being answered each day.
I will be going to his school plus the one I want him to go to tomorrow. Trying to get him straight for this next school year. I will try to keep each of you imformed.
