Project 33

For Project 33 we went back to Kids First Awareness Center. The group included Mrs. Martha, Elizabeth and Grace Earwood, Andrew Wash, and Morgan Jordan. When we got there we tutored the kids for about 30 minutes by helping them with their homework and reading. Then we did a Bible lesson on the prophet Jeremiah and talked about how God knows us and has a plan for us. We were intentionally created to live for our creator. The best part of the day, for me, was to see how much progress these kids seem to have made since this summer. It seems like they are beginning to open up to hearing about God and learning more about Him through His word.

Afterwards we went outside and played slide tag. Brief history on this game: The first time that we went to Kids first we played slide-tag and the they thought it was the coolest thing ever. (really, it was a game that I learned at soccer practice in high school that I hadn't even planned on playing that day) Since then, just about every time we have gone I have given them a few 'options' for games to play, but EVERY single time we never make it past the slide-tag option. Now, the first thing asked when we walk in the door is "Can we play slide-tag today?" They even listen better to the lesson if we promise slide-tag afterwards.... crazy, but funny!

It has been a blast bringing God's word into the lives of these kids. Keep listening for more info on our project at Kids First next month. We would love for you to be a part of it!

ps. I definately forgot to bring the camera this time...(oops!)... so all the pictures are from previous trips.
