A Lost Sheep!

This week the Mercy Ships team dressed up to tell the story of the lost sheep.  About a good shepherd that noticed that one of his sheep was missing and he did everything to find that 1 lost sheep.
 After the story we coloured in a name plate that is going to be stuck in the front of a bible that they are going to give to us.  Imagine that, our own bible, just for us.
Lots of changes are going on here, we are finally having a well dug in our yard, we look forward to breaking through to water.  The walls have been painted and the Mercy team have built some shelving so we will be able to have somewhere to store our clothes off the floor.  We continued to be blessed by God in so many ways.

A Day at the Park

Last weekend the Mercy Team invited us to join them at the playground.  Near the People's Palace is the "Jardin 2 Octobre" where there are lots of things to climb and investigate.  The kids had a great time exploring and experiencing some new things.
They swung on the swings
They slid down the slides
They climbed up the climbing walls
Then the treat that gave BIG Smiles was the space ship fairground ride.
The team brought a huge picnic of sandwiches, crisps, cakes, cookies and nice cold water.  Then when it came to the end of a special day we got dressed up again and did one of our African dances for them.

Of course we had to end with a group photo...
...and the "silly face" shot always gives us a laugh.
   
A great day was had by all, both big and small!
