On The Playground

On Wednesday we had the day off because the schools here were having meetings for the day. We decided to go on a walk and enjoy the beautiful weather (finally!). We walked through several parks and at the last one we ran into some of our kids from one of the apartments that we work with.

We had lots of fun playing...

...And taking lots of pictures.

Getting ready for another go at the monkey bars, I was the safety net man.

Playing on something like a sea-saw.

How cute!

The monkey bars were a big hit!

We had lots of fun with all the girls, did I mention they are "our" girls? Five of them are from one family and they are definitely our special kids.

This started as the girls trying to balance me out but ended up as a jam pile on top of me!

It is really neat to have such a great relationship with these kids. When we're walking through the park and we hear "Mark!, Rebecca!" and see kids running to us, that is when we know that we are having an impact here. We are so loved and we enjoy giving these kids the love that they crave. Please pray for them and all the kids that we work with that they will be able to grow up and be successful, and that they will come to know Jesus as their lord and savior. Please also pray for those who don't participate with us, there are many who have the option but are too cool to come. Please continue to pray for us, thanking God for this ministry and also asking for wisdom, guidance, health, and safety. Thanks!
