“During this week, I got to be involved with VBS and the construction team. Construction was great, I got to try something I’ve never done before and really challenge myself. The guys were really patient with me teaching me new skills and letting me do some grunt work for the chapel we were constructing. Gratitude towards the guys being gentle and checking in on me. There was also a lot of times on those construction days where I would just be present with the Lord and just pray. There was a lot of moments in those pockets of time where I wasn’t doing construction where I was just being with God. Praying for where I’m at, my friends, my family, the missions team I was with, just being there with Him, etc. Needed this time to slow down and actually think. The next two days I spent with helping out with the VBS team. Funny enough the day I choose to help out with the VBS team, we had well over 100 kids at a Compassion church. That was the biggest group we’ve had that week. The other groups we had that week were under 60 kids. Sometimes I forget that yes it’s work and you are serving the Lord but there is such a joy in doing that because the Lord gives you that spirit. Spending time with the kids and getting to know them has brought that back for me. One of our pastors, Oscar, got to present the gospel to not only the 100 kids we had at the Compassion church but also 100 other people that were family members to those kids. Praise and glory to God!
