Suddenly the music stops and a voice over the loud speakers
yells out number 5. Kids start
running, linking arms, laughing, and some screaming with huge smiles on their
faces. When they get in groups of
five they sit down. The music
starts up again creating near chaos, kids dancing, jumping, and lots and lots
of laughter fills the air. This is
just a glimpse of what life looked like during our 2 day English Camp that we
ran in the village of Kam Sa At.
During the 2 days that we spent at the school teaching
numbers, colors, emotions, conversation skills, animals, and so much more. During big group time we played games,
sang songs, preformed skits, and were even given the opportunity to share the
full gospel. In the past this has
not been allowed but God opened BIG doors. After the camp 3 teachers for 3 different schools came to
Mom asking her to bring other teams to their school. They all said teams could share the gospel when they
come. There are a number of
teachers there who have been seeking out Truth. In conversation one of the teachers said they have realized
that Christians do things out of love, not to make merit. They said that in Buddhism doing good
things always seems to be for personal gain, to make merit, but Christians
action are for the purpose of serving others without an agenda! I love it when people lives and actions
speak for the God we serve.
The time we had in Kam Sa At was very precious to me. Below are some pictures of some of my
favorite moments from the school!
