So, Beat the Drum. God is so present in
that town it is mind blowing. Satan
really did not want us there but the Lord is so much bigger! AMEN! Our
group
was split up and we went to different schools and then we had a group
that went
to a near by small town, we showed the movie on Monday to all of the
8th and 9th graders in my school, the response was pretty good from the
kids .
Then when we got to the school on Tuesday there were no kids in school
(good
try satan!) they were on strike because of something going on with the
principle.
We ended up going to the hostel where some of the kids stay which was an
amazing blessing because we got to talk to all grades of kids it was a
total
blessing in disguise. Then on Wednesday we went to hostel again, that is
when I
met Nana and a group of other girls it was really great to talk with
them
openly about abstinence and HIV and stuff that goes on with them because
they
don’t really get to talk about with other people.

On Thursday we had the opportunity to go into the classrooms and talk
with the
kids about the movie and how it related to them and get them thinking
about
some stuff. When Friday came around we decided to split up the girls
and boys
and talk with them separately. 3 other leaders and I talked with about
30 girls
about their dreams for life, the difference between love and lust, the
redemption that the Lord can bring, and some of the myths about boys,
sex, and
HIV. At the end of the afternoon most of the girls in the class decided
to abstain
until they are married. Also about 14 girls gave their lives to Christ
it was
amazing to see how God worked throughout the week!
Also on Friday we had free HIV testing. So many of the students and
locals from
the town stepped up and had the courage to get tested!!
