Well, it is almost time to leave for the Senior's trip to Peru! I can't believe it is here all ready. I will spend the rest of this week getting my kids ready for their exams and the Seniors ready with dramas, songs, and puppers, and then Friday morning we are off!!!
As in the past, we will be working with a ministry called Scripture Union that has an outreach to abandoned boys in Lima and in other parts of Peru. The Seniors will have the privelege of serving alongside of this ministry by sharing the Gospel through drama, songs, and puppets, to the boys and to children in the public schools. They will also be helping to build a school near Caraz, Peru in state of Ancash.
This morning we sang two spanish songs and did the dramas for chapel. Overall it went pretty well. I am so proud of the students and all of the hard work that they have done!!! "The Chair" drama was really fun! There is chair in the middle of the room with a sign that says "Don't Touch"....then enters a boy who sees the chair and is, of course, tempted to touch it. He and a series of others get stuck to their chair until someone show them the other side of the sign that says "sin" and then prays with them to get unstuck. It is all set to the tune of the Pink Panther. So it is very comical, but very powerful. Sin is sneaky...we think it offers us what we want, but it really only enslaves us. The other dramas, The Heart, The Champion, and Mission Impossible also went well! YEAH!!!
Our Seniors are really excited. This will be the biggest group to go to Peru so far. Please pray for us as you think about us!!
